The Lady came to us on the street in Guanabo, Havana. She was so tiny, so small and we understood she had problems with her eyes. My wife gave The Lady her new summer hat, and she looked at us and into the camera with the strongest glance you can imagine. The photo was processed in DxO Optics 10.

In November 2010 I bought a K-5 and used it with a rather cheap Sigma zoom lens. In April 2011 I bought the rather expensive SMC-DA 18-135mm F3,5-5,6ED AL WR and got rid of the Sigma. In November 2013 i bought a K-3 and put on the SMC-DA 18-135mm F3,5-5,6ED AL WR. After this the K-5 has not been in use, and the K-3 has more or less always been used with the SMC-DA 18-135mm F3,5-5,6ED AL WR. 3 weeks ago (november 2015) the lens - for periods - started to work in manual focus only, even though the K-3 was set to autofocus. I wanted to try the lens on the K-5 (that had been stored away for 2 years), and a short while after the camera was switched on, it collapsed and went black (the displays!!). It was dead. The camera and lens were sent for repair - and the verdict: Both the camera and lens have severe damages due to CORROSION, and a repair would be very expensive. I have bought my Pentax cameras and lenses because of the brands WR capabilities (for it's brilliant tests resultsalso, off course), but the gear has under no circumstances been exposed to the conditions it presumable could be exposed to. Still both the camera and the lens collapsed after just 2 years (moderate) use because of corrosion. Is the Pentax WR really reliable??? |

Shot in Northern Norway. Under not the best light conditions. But great fun!
