The K-1 mark 2 can focus...

Hi, I hope it's good for pictures now...
This weekend in switzerland, an alpinboard carving event.
I was skeptical about the autofocus of the K-1 ...
you can believe me, the K1 mark 2 works for sport, in cold conditions.
And with the DA*300mm F/4, with the SDM motor, it can follow the subject continuously.

I believe you. As a fellow K-1II owner it's pretty obvious. But, post some photos!

I'm not seeing the linked photos either... I wonder if there's a problem linking to that host via forum posts?

In any case, glad to hear you were pleased with the camera's AF

My browser says security risk if I attempt to display them directly. Bad site certificate for secure connection?

I just tried accesing one of the images directly, and I get the same thing...

According to Firefox:

Nope, I still get major warnings when attempting to open those images, in Firefox, Chrome and (new) Edge. I suggest you try another image storage service.

Looks good to me! But most of these snowboarders look as though they are just about to land on their ears! I'm now thinking about the coming APS-C camera; will it be as good?

Awesome Captures!

Beautiful work! I'm very interested in what settings you used for Autofocus?
