Until you've done SIC, including the Selfie theme, with a 500mm lens, you haven't lived.

Respect.
200mm (on crop) is the longest I've gone on Selfie Day. Those involved in that month may have never recovered from that image....

I've done 300mm on crop. It took quite many attemps to get it right. I don't think 500mm would be much harder. You just need to run a bit further.

First shot with the Hollywood 28 is in the bank.

Ismo will be pleased!!!!

I have gone with the 01 lens on the original Q, mostly due to heading off on a bike ride from Robe to Torquay later in the month and the need to pack small and light on the bicycle
I had to add the viewfinder not so much for needing to use it, more just because it looks so cool sitting on top of the camera, now to put that flash cover somewhere safe for when I get back, otherwise I would have to spend all that money on the Pentax 100 year replacement......

I love the M50/2. Are you using your K5 PR K1?

I took my first pic with the M135/3.5 this morning. All my fears of the KP being less manual friendly were groundless (the jury is still out on M42s) I shot in Av and it was tremendous
