Great shots! Hard to believe the magpie lived to fight another day...

Re. low light and in body stabilization on K-70. Cat jumped on some clothes on couch that were hot as fresh out of the dryer. Taken under natural night light in a room lit by 2 60w equivalent lights (1 LED, 1 CFL) on table lamps. Used DFA 100mm WR @f.2.8 and @ 320ISO. Forgot to turn off my normal daytime -1.3 EV compensation to compensate for harsh light here. Added up to a 1/8 sec exposure which I took hand held sitting down with elbow blocked on knee. 6 shots, 3 keepers with very little motion visible (2nd pic is 100% crop). Here's one of the keepers. That one can do this sort of photography these days--even on a silly subject--never ceases to completely amaze me. (click pics for EXIFs)

slightly cropped


100% crop

awesome!!!

Some K70 plus Sigma 150-500mm HSM sample photos from me. Acquired the K70 end of Nov 2016, most of my pictures are mostly wildlife shots.

Sweet..Love the tree bark too.

Lovely walk through Windsor Great Park with the combination of stormy skies, sunlight and fresh new leaves on the trees making some great views.
Pentax K-70 and 55-300 ED PLM WR RE

The last two are using the cameras HDR setting. It looks slightly overdone but infact the light was quite impressive to the eye as well

55-300 PLM on K-70

[Tigs]

Got extremely lucky twice last evening when i heard some hel*ish noise from my backyard. Went to see and saw some birds fighting, took a closer look and there they were, a sparrowhawk holding a magpie! So i ran back inside the house to grab my camera, and got lucky for second time; a K-70 was there, ready with FA 100mm Macro. My absolutely best gear for this kind of event! If i were to find and switch lenses the birds would have been long gone!

Now all i have to do is to find a longer, affordable lens since these frames are cropped quite heavily. Thinking that 55-300mm PLM is starting to be justified...








(Spoiler: The magpie eventually got away )

Very interesting moment, Jan! Thanks for sharing

I had never looked at this gallery. It definitely confirms that my k70 is a great camera!

I love this lens and how it handles CA and sharpness. I shoot 360 panoramas with it.

Another example from 10-17:
