I bought the K5 about a month ago. It is my first DSLR, so please bear with my novice questions.
I picked up the Pentax 77mm f/1.8 limited lens for portraits. Up until yesterday, all my portraits were of a single subject. The K5 made it easy. Just throw it into aperture priority, set it wide open, point and click. The results were consistently beautiful with a creamy bokeh that made my shots look amazing.
Yesterday I went on an outdoor shoot with two subjects. I followed the same pattern but when I got home at least half of my shots were unusable because the variance in depth of field was enough that one of the subjects was often out of focus.
Is there something on my camera that was telling me my DOF was too shallow for the lighting conditions? If they were out of focus in my view finder I failed to notice it. (I got enough decent shots to save the shoot but I missed some really great shots due to DOF issues.)
