Ah, well as least you were able to convince her to shoot RAW. Given social media needs at that age she must have been shooting RAW+.

Very nice. Two things about the last shot. First, I wouldn't have guessed you could get a shot like that with a "normal" perspective prime. Second, what's the deal with the old-time look color shift? Was she using one of the camera filter settings? In any event, very nice shooting.

One of the anticipated uses of the Q is in concert settings where large cameras are prohibited, but small cameras are not considered a problem if you agree not to shoot video. In this instance, we were in row "O" - so quite a ways from the stage. Using an 85mm Rokinon shot at around f/2.8 at ISO 800-1000 yielded acceptable results - considering the situation.

OK, Amy - let's see that energetic, even older puppy! Max helps keep the 18 year old (Joe) Cocker alive - competing for food if nothing else, but I fear he'll roll the old man going down the stairs at some point.

Thanks for the praise, crewl1 and Amy - especially from you guys. I have a ways to go on bird shots, though, seeing stuff from both of you.
And Max - who is absolutely crazy & wild much of the time - pretty well knows he's handsome. We still call him Bright Eyes at times - even at age 10+!

Just to be clear: Max is the dog, and Pentax is the lens.
Looking forward to getting the studio test done on this lens. I'm a bit surprised that it performs this well on the Q - with no CA compensation. Making due with a generic adapter for now.
