K-1's are on the way...
I traded the 50-135 which was unacceptably slow to focus and got the 70-200 while it was very briefly at a reduced price. I traded my second 16-50 (long story why I had two) for the 24-70. I consider SRS to have been extremely generous with the P/E. I have begun to wonder if Doug made a mistake. ...

If it wasn't for the fact that, deep down, we all know it's people who take pictures, not cameras, the site would be awash with a new wave of stunning images. I've just been looking at some nice shots I took a few years back on a £50 Pentax Optio S1, upside down, with my left hand (I'd broken m...

Seriously, I am not expecting that the K1 will, of itself, transform my photograhy or enable me to do stuff that I can't do with my K3. For me, the K-1 is just one of the components that I am expecting to help me get better photos. I have already used the new 150-450mm and 70-200mm lenses on a K...

[quote:3496ace15f="Chris@SRSWATFORD"]There is a (very long) list. We are due enough stock to cover all pre-orders, thankfully! And to think that a few years ago on another forum I was told not to invest any more money in Pentax gear as they would be gone before the end of the year. :D I think p...

I had far too much photo kit, much of which I seldom used, and some of it has already been sold to completely fund the K-1. I don't see any future in me maintaining two systems, I simply don't seem to have the time. I DID have a12-24, 17-50 and 50-135 crop frame lenses, now I have 12-24, 24-...

Just paid for mine. Looks like Friday if all goes well.8)8) Just in case anyone didn't appreciate my post re "Half frame, sneers and curled lip" it was intended as humour that might appeal to people who entered photography in the film era. The smiley face gizmo's should have given a clue. Sorry i...

Away from home all yesterday, kept checking emails and bank account. No activity there so I phoned SRS when I got home, turns out there was a discrepancy on my address so the payment hadn't gone through. Drove down to Watford this morning to collect, it's great to see the shop and the faces behind t...

Have you found out yet whether it can track a moving subject and keep it in focus?

Comparing Pentax DSLR's to Others
I have the D7100 and a K-3, the D7200 was a slight upgrade on the D7100 (larger buffer, a HUGE bugbear of the D7100 - what is most irritating, catching focus and then running out of buffer after 5 shots - and improved processing/AF). Once the K-3 catches focus you can take 20+ shots before the came...

Comparing Pentax DSLR's to Others
I have the D7100 and a K-3 How do you find its autofocus compared to the K3? I understand the bugbears of the 7100's rubbish buffer. Ive always use spot focusing on my K3 as i find whenever i use the auto points the camera will 50% of the time not focus on what i want it to (say a branch instead ...

Comparing Pentax DSLR's to Others
Careful, I've had posts removed for mentioning other brands before... My experience has been that in single point AF, Pentax is fine and competitive and very accurate. I've observed the Pentax looks for the focus point and arrives at it in a controlled manner. Some other brands I've used were f...

Comparing Pentax DSLR's to Others
I completely agree about not not being able to try the camera properly in the shop which is why i asked for peoples opinions if they had experience of other systems. Another example of what i think isnt very good is i tried a simple tracking test the other day. Wife walking towards me with pram a...

Since I don't think any of us has posted an image yet, here's one totally untouched from this morning. K1 and 15-30mm. 47 MB! I can't view your image:( You weren't the first either. Has just come up quickly on my PC, my Chromebook and the laptop. If you don't think it is useful I'll delet...

The first K-1 Image ??
I've just been back to that building site, 10 pm, and used 12800 ISO which I have never used on any camera before. I used to regard 3200 as the maximum tolerable on a K3 and I didn't think the K1 at two stops faster was any worse. This is going to transform my frequent low light work.
