All the colors of Fall all at once.
DA* 16-50 PLM

Took my mk III out to an event called "Chalktoberfest". The weather was picture perfect for it.
The lens I chose was the 20-40 ltd which worked out well for the distances/subjects.
I may have like to have the 16-50 PLM to get better bokeh but overall the 20-40 was a nice compact choice.

Check out my photos here:
There was some minor tweaking in LR but not very much at all was needed.
The DR of the raw files saved my butt on a couple of shots!

First posts from the Jet Black K3iii. Shot using the DA * 300mm handheld. 1/1000sec, f4. Late in the season Monarch butterfly on weed 160 ISO, on gravel 100 ISO. Incidentally I was surprised to discover Camera came from Ricoh with latest 1.50 firmware, and the images labeled IMJB ! Hmmm, IMage - Jet Black ? I'm posting another image of the first butterfly in the 300mm Lens Club.

Interesting experiment. I have the same question about DxO support of Pentax pixelshift raw files. Digging some old threads it seems that it wasn't supported right away and support was added later, hence I suppose that the support is proper and uses all files. Even though there is probably no motion correction unless it's already built into the raw files. I did some experiment at high-iso and it seemed to produce much less noise which is the expected by-product of using multiple shots (not necessarily pixel-shifted).

If you have a file like this it is perfectly obvious if all subframes are used or not, although this does not answer the question about motion correction.

Pixelshift (left) vs. no Pixelshift (right)

If you want me to I can send you the .dng to play with. This can be interesting – in another thread we discussed the observation that with the K-3 III the Image Transmitter 2 software for tethered shooting combined with Pixelshift produced files with only three of the four subframes readable, which were then processed without PS in ACR and RawTherapee. To my knowledge this is still not fixed.

Sure why not, I can do some experiments with DxO. Meanwhile, here's a high-iso pixelshift that I edited with DxO. Compared o other non-pixel shifted images I took, it seems to make a difference in how effectively I can denoise. It's an unusual use-case, nevertheless it looks like PS can be useful for some odd type of low-light/night shooting.
Even if, maybe in terms of noise reduction I would have got the same result by stacking frames; but it's handier in a single file.

Hi All,

I have been asked by a friend to take some candid shots at a breakfast meeting to be held indoors. I imagine that the lighting will be older florescent or incandescent. There will be no natural light. The floor, walls, and ceiling are a neutral beige. My preference is to use my K3-III body, but I don't want to blast people with a flash. Are there any examples of candid indoor portraits on this forum? Can anyone recommend a lens for indoor, flash-less photography with a K3-III? And finally, what settings should I use? I don't imagine that there will be a lot of action.

Cheers,
Loyd
