I really like the stars lenses with 9 aperture blades produce

i'll take part of the blame for my review of the lens....optically superb, AF accuracy is less than stellar with no fix in sight.

Thank you, Eric!
I often have debates with myself going back to aps-c but it's always fun to push a 35mm sensor and see how much more it can do. ISO 1600 - no problem!
I am also starting to believe that you don't really need anything below F2.8 on FF for general photography from bokeh aesthetics and technical POV.

K-1 and DA*200 2.8
1600 ISO, ƒ-stops from 2.8 to ƒ8, pushing the limits of exposure to keep from losing dynamic range. Times 1/15s to 1/160s click on the image and scroll down the page to see the exif for any given image.

According to Yahoo Answers

Quote:

A Raven is black but depending on which way the light hits it they change to other colors like bluish, dark red, or greenish.

Raven is black that gives off a blue tint every time the light hits it.

According to Wilkepedia

Quote:

In sunlight, the plumage can display a blue or purple sheen which is a result of iridescence

Shooting with the K-1 (as opposed to with the K-3 yesterday), incredible how much better the colour balance is and how much more tweak able. I was able to create a single preset to use with all images.

SO what it the real colour of a Raven? Blue Jays use the same iridescence so irridescence as opposed to real colour can be a thing.

He can be pretty black.

But depending on the angle of the light....

And from the right angle...they get quite colourful...

So what colour is a raven? Same bird, same camera, different angles, light to bird and photographer to light.

Inquiring minds want to know.

Very pleasing night shot. The star-flares are real eye-catchers.

I've noticed with Annabelle and previous cats that they like to lie and sleep atop or inside anything new and different. It's as if lying/sleeping on something is somehow taking possession of it.
