Thank you!!!!
I have completed my migration to Pentax. In the short period of time, with an extra $1000, the advise in this post and the vast information on this site, (as well as some luck and friends) I have amassed the following:
- K-1
- K-10d
- PZ-1
- Sigma 12-24mm f/4.5-5.6 EX DG
- Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 EX DG
- Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 Di
- Sigma 100-300 f/4 EX DG
- Sigma 1.4x TC EX DG (on its way)
- SMC Pentax-DFA 100mm f/2.8 Macro WR
- SMC Pentax-DA AL 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
- SMC Pentax-FA 28-80mm f/3.5-4.7
- SMC Pentax-FA 28-90mm f/3.5-5.6
- SMC Pentax-FA 70-200mm f/4-5.6
- Pentax AF360FGZ Flash (Broken Door)
What I gave up:
-Canon 7d Mark ii
-Canon 30d
-Canon EF 40mm f/2.8 STM
-Canon 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM
-Sigma 17-70mm f/4.5-5.6
-Canon 18-135mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM
-Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro
-Canon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 IS
-Canon 430ex Flash
-$1000 USD
I think I did fairly well. Now its time to take some shots.

These are a couple of my first ever Pentax & K-1 shots. Got the camera today, lots to learn.
The first 2 are right out of the camera with my New (used) D FA 100mm Macro WR. The last has some LR edits using an old Sigma 18-35mm.

I don't own a single thing with Pentax on it.
Within the next month, that will all change.
The K-1 happened to me!
Great write-up.

If this helps any, here is what I am doing. Love the results:
Using a copier stand, macro lens, tablet with a light box app, custom built lego stand to hold an old darkroom negative carrier away from the light/pixels. That way the light is nicely dispersed. |
