Agreed

Pentax-a 50 f/1.7

Manual focus anyway

Here are a couple shot today - shot using a teleconverter with the glass removed to use as an extension tube, a 35mm Super Tak and a 36-LED light panel...

Spencer's Camera in Utah. I had him convert to the CLR so I could use multiple filters. They also installed the heat transfer system they came up with to keep heat away from th e sensor on long exposures

Thanks blaze, really enjoying using the light panel, puts out some nice clean light which in return leads to some good results.

Tonight I will be trying out the small light panel inside of a bar shooting a band that I know - I am looking for the light panel to give me some good clean fill light without overpowering the light that will be in place on the stage....

We've had some pretty good storms in GA lately. The first 3 were taken with my DA18-55, the fourth was taken with my Tamron 28-300mm.

skism · 06-18-2011, 08:07 PM

Taken with KX and Tamron 17-50.

Great shots all. Just shows what talent there is on these boards and,what a great camera the K-x really is!

haxo55 - FANTASTIC shot! Everything about it, the pose, the lighting, the colors, the subject - if you don't mind, fill us in, what lens was used on this one?

Hey when you took these pics with the lightning, do you have a light trigger or do you just let a long exposure go and hope for a bolt somewhere in there? Thanks, and I thought I spied Athens. Was this last Wednesday? I live in Alpharetta and the storms were great last week!
