A*135mm
This nest is directly outside my window at the office. The Swallows are always swooping near the window, startling me several times a day. It’s exhausting.
There’s 4 of them in there. Not yet leaving the nest.

Pentax A*135mm on K1
I know...not a pretty shot.
I was looking out of my relatively clean windows and noticed this.
Upon further inspection....either a bird or an angel did it.
:D

This is not a good representation of this lens. I was rushed and missed the focus, but liked the pose. So I over processed and now it is “art”...haha.
A*135mm on K1
Th second shot is not edited, just cropped. Using 135mm for long distance shots isnt the best choice of lens, but it’s all I had.

A*135 + VND filter
I don’t take “moving” photos, so I never used a ND filter before. I never really knew what they were good for. I am quite pleased with its subltle impact.
I also am learning the P Setting in my K1 because I like an ISO that remains constant. (I usually stay in M). I used bracketing to see how this filter works. The best exposure was the standard exposure (no +, no -) although the bracketed shots were all useable after PP.
Finally, some spring sunshine!

A*135mm out for a morning shoot.
The river got as high as the snow indicates on the tree trunk.

K1/A*135mm (...damn! I always forget to change the focal length when I switch lens!).
Not the best composition...live and learn.

Here is my apples-to-apples (flowers-to-flowers) comparison between the A*135 @ 2.4 and K135 @ 2.5
1/90. 800 ISO.
Shot on my K1 at minimum focus distance.
Light source - late afternoon daylight and tungsten lamp
White balance setting - Daylight
Custom image setting - Reversal film
Only PP is cropping.
The A*135 has a shorter minimum focusing distance.
Notice the difference in the coffee cup/bokeh.
That K135 stacks up pretty nicely to the spendy A*135.

My manual focusing is a little better on this K135 shot. It’s a great lens!

I love my K135, too! That’s why I was so hesitant to upgrade.
The flower shot was Portra NC film. The boy on my K1.

I’ve been stalking these A*135mm lens on eBay for many months, and finally succumbed.
Lousy weather outside, so first shots are fake flowers, indoors. I’m pretty damn happy.
