It's been a long time since I posted some pictures from the Q7. So, here's one taken last weekend with the 02, SOOC Bold monochrome:

Thank you. Why do you think this way about the 24-70? seems to me a lot of people are using it.

I made it back to the ice tonight. I had a little more time and nice mild temperatures.
I wanted something to put in front of the flash to diffuse and hide it. I found this nice ice chunk and pushed it out to the bubbles. It had some mass and it slid beautifully, making me think of curling. :)
Standing it up without any visible stuff took a little engineering with some ice shims and a little saliva to stick it together. Seemed to work out ok. :)

This is a shot of the overwintering gull colony in Lodmoor, taken in the evening Golden Hour. The lens is the lowly A70-210 f/4, which cost me less than £12, on the genuine Pentax adapter. I'm at the softer end of the zoom range, about 200mm (the zoom creeps a bit), but the equivalent focal length is over 900mm.
The birds stand dutifully still in the water, which helps, but to get 1/500th @f/8, ISO has gone up to 500 on my Q7.
Normally, the combination of a soft(ish) zoom and high ISO would not be a good one.
In PP, I have used the second version of Franzis' Denoise, which has removed the noise very well, though at the expense of some fine detail.
I have no fear of high ISO with my K-S2 - none whatsoever - but I've always been a bit wary of taking my Q7 out of "film range" (ISO100 - 400). It's early days for the Q7/Denoise pairing, but I appear to be able to get good results up to ISO800 or ISO1000. The push/pull zoom also seems to add a bit of "pop".
Does anyone else have a favoured solution to "push" the Q family into high ISO territory?
