A very good use of selective focus plus color contrast to make the tulip stand out.

I understand the ergonomics are a strong point for a grip, but if you hold your camera for hours, let's say in a wedding day, or if you go hiking, the extra weight is a burden (for me). I understand it is a good idea for a portrait photoshoot, for example.

You can send them to me 😁. By the way, pop up flashes are no useful for serious photography. Don't be too worried about them.

😯 I'm only a poor (but proud) k5 owner. No firmware update for me.

You could design your own camera bag. Maybe we'll find it useful and buy it (if you make a special price for us, of course 😉).

No, I don't. I know what some people say about protecting your lens and so. But if you take well care of your equipment you won't need filters for that purpose. And IMHO, anything you put in front of your lens will diminish the quality of your picture, no matter how good your filter is.

Second battery in the bag and a quick replacement when it's over is the best IMHO. The extra weight of a grip isn't a good idea for me.

Welcome Jens. A crop sensor will always give you a plus when photographing birds.

Maybe in the future. But by now I'll continue using the ones I have and saving some money for a new lens.

I never saw this thread before. I love trees pictures, especially if they're of a lonely tree.

If any of you are interested, we have made a home maid sterilization unit at our home. It works, itīs cheap and itīs easy to do. All you need is an ultraviolet type C light set into a box, with a switch to turn it on OUTSIDE the box. You can buy it as a fluorescent tube (this is the one we use) but there are other kinds of UVC lights. The box must be CLOSED before you switch the light on, because UVC light can damage your eyes. It can also damage your skin. But you will be safe if you turn it on once the box is closed. UVC radiation kills all the bacteria and virus in just minutes. It has been extensively tested and is used in industry to sterilize water and food. We use it at home to sterilize all packages that come from our Internet purchases, and even for our face masks. This system has been proved to be effective for the sterilization of face masks. We bought our UV fluorescent tube type C from a Chinese company for 20-30 , with its bearing and cable, shipping included. If you are willing to make your own make sure you buy a UV light TYPE C. Others wonīt kill the corona virus. If the light source is a fluorescent tube it can generate ozone. It is no good to breathe ozone frequently, but ozone will also kill the corona virus from the item you put inside the box. If this is the kind of light source you use for your sterilization unit, be sure to use it in a well vented place. Due to the inverse square law, that you probably know, the UVC will need more time to be effective in a bigger place. But inside a box of 50x50x50 cm, for example, itīll take just 2-3 minutes to kill all the microbes from your packages. One more (and last advice). Put something in the bottom of the box (inside) so it isnīt even (to avoid any package, letter, etc., stay flat once you introduce it into the box). This way the light will touch the introduced item all around. I hope you find this post useful. Stay safe.
