Sorry, I failed to answer the question regarding wind. These three pictures were taken on 3 different days. I recall wind one of the days but not the others.

Thank you. You bring up some very interesting points. I've not investigated "Autofocus fine-adjustment menu to pair your lens with the camera" and this is very interesting. I will look into it. I'm attaching another puzzling picture in which the foreground and background (mountains) are clear. I'm not sure how to attach a 1:1 picture but I will attach something that I think is close. I'm not very technical. Thanks for your patience.

On another note, are there any suggestions as to a lens I should use with this camera to get the best quality pictures without spending my entire paycheck :-) ? Thanks again.

You may be correct @BigMackCam. The only reason it's puzzling is because I've never used these high speeds before, even with another Pentax camera. Thanks!

Wow! I cannot believe the responsiveness on this forum. Thank you all very much. I will attempt to bump my shutter speed above 1/250 when possible. To note, these pictures are taken in raw .pef and are converted via Lightroom to the highest quality .jpg. I had a Nikon d610 before this and did not experience this problem although I did not like the camera itself and therefore traded up for a K1. I've considered getting a prime as well. I just wanted to make sure this wasn't a defective lens/camera and something I should return within the first 30 days.

Yes. Thank you. If it were shake I would assume all parts of the picture would be blurry. I have other pictures in which portions are completely clear and others are not.

Hi All,
I purchased a K1 earlier this month with HD PENTAX-D FA 28-105mm lens. I've photographed some fall scenes and am disappointed to find that the trees and bright colors(reds and yellows) are blurred. I will attach a picture that shows a blurred hill with red foliage (completely unedited photo). I have numerous photographs that illustrate this so I can attach others. The speed on this photograph is 1/200 with f-stop f8. I expected much more from such a high quality camera and lens. Is this a lens issue? Thanks in advance!
