I have just returned from a trip to the South Island of New Zealand with my Pentax K1. I took my 15-30mm and 24-70mm and was very happy how everything performed. Attached is a shot from a single frame taken at sunrise at Glenorchy (yes that is the moon). I love the self leveling feature which really speeds up the process of not having to level each shot which I had to with my previous body.
Pentax K1, 1/10 sec, f/11, ISO 100 @ 17mm with 15-30mm f2.8

A tutorial on astrotracer would be awesome as would one on pixel shift from capture to post processing.
Thanks

Thanks for the comment. I appreciate it. 1265 is the number of frames the camera has taken since I purchased it.

Here is my 1265 photo from my Pentax K1 and to date my favourite out of this wonderful camera. It has only taken me a short time to become familiar with the operation of the camera and getting used to the new menu system. I believe this is testament to Pentax as I was using a Canon 5d mk3 for 4 years prior to Pentax.
The photo is taken from Bombo which is on the South Coast of New South Wales around a 2 hours drive from Sydney. Photo is from a single frame and it was shot at 16mm (Pentax FA 15-30mm), f8, 1/5sec and ISO 100. It is amazing what can be pulled out of a single frame from this camera.
Thanks for viewing.

A sunrise shot from Lavender Bay in New South Wales cropped at 3:1. The sky was not great but the water was nice and smooth which made for some nice reflections.
ISO 100, 4sec, f8, 15mm, 15-30mm f2.8

First upload to K1 Pictures!. Merry Christmas to all.
A sunrise shot from Richmond in New South Wales. A new K1 user and really enjoying the K1 and particularly loving the horizon correction feature for landscapes and focus peaking. These 2 features in my opinion justified the move to Pentax.
ISO 100, 0.5sec, f8, 43mm, 27-70mm f2.8

Thanks for the detailed and quick response and the welcome to the forum. I will check out tonight when the K1 is in my hands.
I found the transition relatively easy which is a positive on the side of Pentax as I found most things easily understood in the menus. 4 years with one body from a different manufacturer is difficult to erase from the mind and then there is the lenses that are zoomed in the opposite direction!!

Thanks.
It is a shot of Junction Falls from the South Lawson waterfall circuit.
Thanks for the compliment. A bit more water would be nice but it was a fun day out with the new toy!

Hi and it is great to be a part of this great forum.
I was a Canon 5d mk3 user and have just migrated over to a Pentax K1 as my main body. I have kept the Canon for sport photography.
I have a 28-105mm f3.5 - 5.6, a 15-30mm f2.8 and a 24-70mm f2.8 and I am really liking both of the f2.8 lenses.
My passion is landscape photography and I took the K1 and 15-30mm up to the Blue Mountains last Saturday for a few waterfall shots after the recent rain and the result is below.
Still lots to learn about the K1 and forgetting the muscle memory from the Canon will take some time.
2 questions regarding the K1:-
1:- When bracketing exposures and using the timer is there a way to change to 2 seconds instead of 12?
2:- When using live view and displaying the electronic level on the screen is there a way to remove it without having to press the info button twice and deselecting it?
Thanks,
|
