No filter(s) has been used to create this photo. Beside I cannot use any built in filter when I shoot raw and no filter lens either.

Well yes, of course. But don't get me wrong, I am just stating the obvious here. Your saying 1st is $50 GC from BH and 2nd is $50 GC from what?

It was fun traveling in south and central America, wish I had more time for creative photos. Being with a tour and impatient wife, you have to basically point, shoot and make the best of it. I will be posting some shots in google plus if you like to see https://plus.google.com/u/0/106010767597397782147/posts
Cheers

Yes for sure the terrain are very rugged in Peru. Machu Pichu inca trail was not very worrisome for me as trail was quite relatively tamed and manageable. The Gringo Killer steps trail has an intimidating name but I find it relative easy enough to go down, but going up is another story. My camera is usually tuck in the case with belt latch on not zippered while I am either climbing or descending the mountain, so when I want to take a photo I just unlatch and grab the camera and then back in again. This way the camera is not dangling and not in the way (had minor drop once and hit the screen protector) . What really worried me is the elements/weather as the Inca trail when I trek it, I was fortunate to have a mild weather and it did not rain as much as this was the rainy season. However being said that, the amazon rain forest was another story, 100% humidity and it rained alot as this was the record breaking rainy season for them. My lenses fogged up several times every time the sun comes out to peek. It also created a condensation in the air gap between the screen protector and lcd screen but it went away within few minutes, thank goodness I had the screen protector as I had replace the LCD screen prior to my trip. It was moisture that killed some pixel on the LCD.
My K5II survive the amazon rainforest....

It was expensive before digital for sure. But I missed those days. Dark room equipment, films to be developed, trip to processing shop or camera shop and buy more films....and round and round you go and wallet gets lighter :(

BY THE WAY Heie,
I did end up getting lowepro top loader with front harness and side lens case attached to it. See attached photo of me my daughter at the inca trail also carrying a monopod for walking stick. Carrying the case was a bit awkward specially walking down a big steps on the Gringo killer trail in which the steps were 12" to 18" high, it was hard to see where your feet are and had to move it on side once and awhile but manage. But the good thing about this is that it gives me well balance pack, anyway thanks for your suggestion... Cheers

Hey Heie,
I did bought it as you suggested and sorry for the late reply, I just got back from Peru, did the inca trek and the amazon. It work well and almost fully drop my camera once and ding the screen protector and held well but a little scratched. Glad I had it on, however in the amazon it rained a lot and 100% humidity. As soon the sun came out and started taking photos and breathing on the screen at same time it created moisture between the protector and lcd screen but it went away in few a minutes but moisture did not make contact on the lcd screen. if I did not have the protector it would have done the same thing as before. Anyway thanks again...

Thank you, I tried it last night before posting it did not work and tried it again now it work. Must been not sitting properly on the shoe. So I assume that this will not work wirelessly from K5 II without the rf602/rf603?

Thank you Heie, sounds like this camera is made for the Army :) and screen protector too…. I guess will be ordering it now. Like to be safe as I maybe planning on a 4 day hike in Machu Pichu and heard that it gets pretty rainy there. Oh one more thing, just curious how do you carry your camera while you hiking the bush, do you have a holster or keep it exposed hanging by your chest? I find it easier on my chest for quick grab but don't like it dangling so I try to strap it with the back pack belt, But sometime I don't like it exposed and trying to find a chest bag/holster. Sorry this should be in a another thread, but just a quick query. Thanks again...
