And one with the SMC Takumar 50mm/1.4. Can you spot the building?

You did a good job to capture those qualities with what are basically narrow view lenses.

I love walking in the mist. Takumar 20mm or 24mm. . . I forget which.

Beautiful! That is a great photo!

**RussV** · 10-12-2015, 09:00 AM

Nice shot. I wouldn't want to stand too close, some of those stones look ready to fall!

So you CAN teach an old dog new tricks. . . or at least new facts about his favourite camera.

All these years I've been assuming that the Pentax K10D/Samsung GX-10 uses a Samsung sensor, but now I've been told by Paul (in another thread) that the amazing 10MP CCD is in fact a Sony sensor.

Thanks to Paul for clearing that up for me.

Dave, I was just passing on some knowledge I'd gained from the helpful folks here on PF

I need to get my K10D groove back on - lately I've been shooting more with that glorious 6 mp CCD on my *ist D

. Time to show my K10 some love, I think!
