I guess after a ~5k exposures on the K-1 it's time to show something here.

Lake Superior, mouth of Chapel Creek near Munising.

Wow, great sea greens and blues! Love it!

Pen-A and Blan01, the dogs are too cute. Always a good choice.

Eaglem - EEEEEEEK!

IggzDaLoc - Captivating cave view!

Mattb123 - Great seasonal mood shot.

teiki - another great B&W.

So many great pic's in this thread!

Thanks to Pentax K-1 clearly...

Lightroom CC is not the best RAW Editor IMHO. I prefer DxO and Capture One Pro (for the little I used it)...

A couple more... These are tight crops, and I continue to be amazed at the amount of cropping we can get away with on the K-1... almost down to 100% viewing on some and still have a salvageable shot.

I continue to be impressed with the K-1 in low light.

This is with the F 50mm f1.7 at ISO 6400 because that's where I had left it earlier...

Ok this is not news to owner of both K-1 and DFA* 70-200 but the resolving power of this combo is just incredible, in this case it's not exactly a good thing, tried taking portrait of a skater friend of mine, high resolution and teenage skin doesn't mix too well....Took me quite a bit of time in PP to clean up the skin( mostly...)

ISO100, f2.8, 130MM

PS, is this too much on the magenta side?

Yes looks like the Magenta is a bit strong. If you like doing Portraits it might pay to invest in a copy of Portrait Professional which will give you perfect results in pretty quick time. I think you can get a trial copy so you can test it.
