Just got back home from a forest near town and had a similar experience.
My K-5 ran out of battery in the morning (Last night, I put the battery on the charger, assuming the charger was plugged... Big mistake, no spares).
so I took my P30t loaded with half a Ultramax 400 (pushed to 2 stops) and when I finished it up I was hesitant whether to use another roll... So I grabbed my old P&S, (which I gave to my mother after I bought the K-5), a Sony HX9v.
I hadnīt use it in almost 2 years and WOW, did I have fun with it! Focus was fast and DoF is so forgiving... The optical stabilizer is one of the best out there and HDR is quite nice to fool arround.. Plus a 24mm to 200 equivalent with Macro up to 2 inches.. I could go on but I donīt spect any mirracles when I download the images into my pc...
I would love to post some shots but my mother kept the cam. I wil, however, share some shots with the K-5 before it died on me. The lens is a M50/4 MACRO. It is a great little lens!
cheers,
Francisco from Argentina.
