BRB,

Thank you. I use LR3 which helps but the KX is quite forgiving.

LR3 is so good that it has given my K200D new life as well.

tried macro with k-x and vivitar series 1 100 mm f3.5 (poor man's macro lens

)

I've been lurking around here for awhile. I'm still new to all of this. A month after I got my k-x, the screen went out. It only recently got fixed so I'm still learning all of the settings. So go easy on me. Contructive, easy to follow criticism is welcomed

I still shoot with the original 18-55mm lens

my youngest(dont remember settings)

This is when my screen went out. This is at Animal Kingdom in Disney world. My screen went out completely right before this show started. It was a guessing game with shots using just the viewfinder in a dark show. lol

Can you tell I love WDW?

Main Street U.S.A.

Nothing too special. Driving through downtown Pittsburg....lost. lol

They let guys in jeans on the drag strip?

airmike08 · 05-27-2011, 12:29 AM

Haha. They're kevlar lined jeans, made for riding.

SirJangly · 05-27-2011, 12:32 AM

Wow, I don't get quality shots like this on my kx

joe.penn · 05-27-2011, 05:10 PM

Licking my chops over my Takumar fetish! Got this beauty in today (purchased from marketplace here) - there is nothing like opening your gear bag and seeing an array of Super Tak's, a truly wonderful thing...

Attempt at macro using the M50 f/2 inverted on extension with on-camera flash.

They may be kevlar, but I'd never go on a track - dragstrip or otherwise - in anything less than full padded leather or a high quality textile suit. Those kevlar jeans will provide no impact protection to the knees and will very likely abraid the skin from the inside in a fall.

Enough preaching, more K-x bikes!

Couple of shots off my old Sears 50mm 1.7...

I had to make this one black and white because it still had the white balance skewed for tungsten from the night before when the first shot was taken. ISO was also crazy high for similar reasons.
