Lemurs - Up Close & Personal
You're right about #1. It is (by normal measures) out of focus because the 'standard' rule is to focus on the nearest pupil. But in this case it works extremely well. It somehow adds an intimacy that would not be there otherwise. Thanks G 999 !

A-50mm f2.8 - this is what happens
Good choice, John. The A50 macro has the best IQ of all the lenses I own (and I own too many). You can see its qualities from the shots you posted. Unfortunately, mine doesn't get used as much as it ought to - as at this focal length for the kind of stuff I mostly shoot I find AF quite important...

A-50mm f2.8 - this is what happens
Hi, thanks for the positive comments. No filters used in any of the images, I enhanced the 'Reds' in the waterfall pictures just to try and off-set the large amount of green's in the originals. Didn't do much else. In my brief time with the A-50mm f2.8 Pentax lens, it appears to be a stunner....

RAF rescue
Whilst camping in Wales the other week the RAF rescue helicopter was called upon to help someone who I believe had fallen on rocks. Hopefully the injury was not too serious. The conditions were quite dull and this is perhaps reflected in the colours. All taken with the K5 and DA55-300 mostly ...

Wow! I didn't think the Sigma 10-20mm was that sharp :shock: At least my copy isn't :cry: All shots are excellent :wink: What was the general exposure details and ISO? Did you use AF and SR or just pre-set focus?

Motorsport: Cholmondeley Pageant of Power
What days were these taken Simon? I was standing near the hump-back bridge on Sunday afternoon but didn't see any other obvious Pentax users. The Bentleys must be Friday or Saturday looking at the weather. Everybody was giving it some over that hump-backed bridge at the end of the course, except ...

Infra Red
I purchased an IR from a member (thanks milamber) and have taken this pic a few moments ago from my back door. I used my *istDS and 28mm SMC Takumar (it has an IR focusing index). I shot RAW at 200ISO f5.6 at 1/30. All guess work really but does anyone have sound advice in coverting from a very r...

My new (Lens) baby
As in the title ! Picked it up after having had it stuck in Wenzhou for a couple of months on it's way to me. So as we were there for business/pleasure I was delighted to while away my time taking snapshots whilst trying to figure out how best to use it :) These are more a set of my experimenta...

Which do you prefer and be honest.
A and C, both B and D are out of focus, B much more so than D, to my eyes anyway.
