I really love my DA*200 more than DFA 70-200 F2.8..
but if I need to keep one, DFA 70-200 f2.8 is the choice.

Ohh i tried again, yes it can.
Now I need to make a new shooting habit with this button, and it needs to release if I want to move the af point, why dont they make it always on???

Thank for the suggestion of the af button, i will try it.
I really need that af point light. ---------- Post added 02-18-2020 at 05:58 PM ----------
I tried it, it is not useful.
When we are outdoor at night and do the long exposure, it is hard to see the focus point, it needs to try several times to nail the and move the focus.
Another, when I shot the boat trail with the long exposure (or I was on the moving boat and shot at the dim area), when I saw the boat was coming, I need to compose and focus fast, to the certain point and set the af need many time trying because it is hard to see the af point position on the screen location, it can delay a lot of time, not mention the af lock will be more slow at dark.
To decided AF point position on the screen, it needs few seconds alone, i really need the af light is on, I wish the upgrade FW has that option.

Is there any way to always on the AF Point Light??
I have a very difficult to see the AF point when in dark, sometime the light go on and off very fast, so it takes a lot of time to decide where to move the focus (my favorite is 9 point select focus area), I have plus eyesight, it is blurred, I can not setting the camera myopia screw, because if I can see near, I can not see far (versa).
Maybe pentax can give some option to do the always on? Or it can affect to the photo result because it is on the focus screen if always on?
Thank you.

I travelled to china 4 times a year, business/meeting and do solo trip and photoshot alone, my goal is, i will finish the whole china when I am still strong (51 years old man with titanium mitral valve in the heart).
Been many interesting places, beautiful country, very safe place, and make a lot of friendship, also and saw many cultures and delicious foods (I remember my new friend brought me to extremely delicious roasted giant pigeon in Guangzhou or Noddle in the old town of Suzhou and I think it is the most delicious noodle that I ever tasted).
I can recognize which one local tourists or outsider chinese.
Most local tourist are in the canikon (met pentax also), almost all DLSR.
I saw several men at the top of yellow mountain carried the 70-200mm.
But we are all brands will become rare, all will be very very very rare, because Oppo, Xiaomi, Samsung, Huawei, Vivo are everywhere, all hand up with the big screen, they dominated every corner of the world.
So, why we still feel rare is bad?? 😅😅😅

In my trip to Seoul, Singapura, Thailand, Penang and Japan, many Sony on the street, but at zoo in Seoul I met Pentax users and several 645z users.
China, only 1 or 2 sony - very few, but most of them are canikon and pentax also, most of the tourists (local tourists) are using DLSR, it seems they dont like mirrorles, they love DLSR big gun, looks very confident and strong.

Haha maybe you need some good looking and better "gun".
Forget it with your small "gun" ---------- Post added 02-10-2020 at 04:09 PM ----------
Why I only choose pentax, because the coating and color tone, I dont do photoshop because I have zero skill.
I am not about blind and dummy pentax supporter, I spent my hard earning money to buy the gears and every pro grade pentax lenses, because I love the good IQ that I can have, with very reasonable price, walk around weight (everyday walking about 12-14 hours when in the trip), weather sealing, strong body, etc.
I have Leica also, when I was with Leica d-lux 7, I photos a lady, and she was angry to me, no smile.
When I was using the big gun, especially tele lenses, they were smile, very pretty, and ask me to show her the photo and ask my wechat number to send her the photos, that was my experiences, I have many friends that I know when I was on trip.
I think size does matter in here...

I believe the game will change, I own almost all the best pentax lenses (miss DFA560 only) and they are very good, af speed is fast, IQ is very good with K1ii.
Lenses price are reasonable, and for FF they are good in weight.
Weather sealing is great, and because no many use Pentax, when I am travelling to many places, it looks very expensive set up to other users, I met a lot of new friends (most of them ladies) because they were attracted to my setup 🥰🥰🥰
So why would I have to choose other brands?? No need.

I tried the 560mm at pentax headquater at Ginza - Japan, i found the sharpness dissappointed me, it is very scary to buy that one.
Now I am waiting the great TC for FF, I hope it will work great with 150-450.
Cross finger... ---------- Post added 02-07-2020 at 11:41 PM ----------
I am waiting best apsc body, and the AF speed is as fast as K1ii, the ISO also is equal or more good than K1ii.
Unfortunately, KP is not on that league, so another waiting is worth to do.

What is your most favorite lens??
My most favorite lens is :
DA200, because of the sharpness, bokeh and f2.8.
DA300 is very very sharp also but unfortunally it is F4.

Yes, china are full of telltales, histories and all the places are exists !!!
I need a lot of ongoing years to finish the whole the china.
It is safe, excellent transportations, accomodations, delicious foods and not very expensive.
The only important thing for solo traveller or lonewolf is to speak and understand a little mandarin language, because many of them can not speak and read a,b,c,d and 1,2 3,4

Journey to The West, the 16th century story from Song's dynasty, this statue is Monk Tang Sanzhang and his journey to the west to get the book for king.
In the journey, he met Sun Go Kong with his friends and they protected the master from many enemies and satans
He did it, now the book is in the pagoda behind his statue, we can see the book there.
One of the great and famous story, many kids love it. ---------- Post added 01-25-2020 at 07:37 PM ---------- In my trip to many cities in China, Xi'an is most beautiful city, with the city wall, terracota soldiers, Wild Goose Pagoda etc
Amazing place, I have been there many times and will be back again and again.
