Park birds
Took a few pictures with AF, only 1/5th got focus on birds. I understand why people say manual focusing is the best even for action shots. Need much practice though.

Park birds
Great shots! I particularly like number 1. Manual focus on moving subjects is too difficult fo me. AF and hope for the best :D

K-5 MKii with F 50mm f/1.4
Not had much time to play with my K-5 mkii due to other commitments but boy do I love using my 50mm wide open with it. Its so sharp with no focus adjustments in body. These where shot in my kitchen which has florescent lighting at one end and energy saving lights at the other. Straight out of ...

K-5 MKii with F 50mm f/1.4
Gary, when you get the time could you provide any other + points of the K5 Mk11 that you discover in relation to the original K5? Thanks Fletcher8 Its all about the focus improvements, a little sensor and the body coating. That's about it but uts enough to make me think how did I manage with t...

My first K30 shots, ever.
1st one's a toughie... Reflected light on highly polished brass isn't easy. 2nd one appears to have a bit of a tungsten-type hue. 3rd one is a bit "heavy" on the red end of the colour spectrum. A bit of PP to tone it down a bit, I think. 4 - That's the one for me, although it might work a b...

My first K30 shots, ever.
Yeah I like the black and white one, will go back and retake it when there is less cars. There's a book called ghosts of Salisbury which says Meadow Road is gloomy. It's OK now, but once when it was all gas light, I suppose it would have been like that.

41'C today and hard light.
Nice shots :D - what is the second bike:?: I it seems to be Italian but I thought that Ducati's have the 'v' front to back not to the sides and that Aprillia's are not normally that big but that is me showing my ignorance - possibly:roll:

getting the hang of DSLR.... I think
I think all could of been nice pictures but it looks to me there are focus issues. Try not to rush things, take more time and try and capture your subjects in focus. That way you will get better and more sharper images with less need for processing. Also check that you have camera shake on.

K-5II + Sigma EX DG OS 70-200mm 1:2.8 Racing at night images
I've rcvd a similar comment on another forum Mr. Smeg. I've only used Lightroom for these, definitely no PS trickery here. I think the 'artificial' appearance stems from the fact that I had the flash mounted on the hot shoe and consequently there are very few shadows. I wasn't particularly fo...

The unsen side of Salisbury
Hi here are some more shots I took in Salisbury, This is a doorway into the unused part of Salisbury railway station, staff don't like to go to this part if they can help it. My friend who works here as a guard says its creepy, she says she feels like she's being 'watched'. Apparently this...

K-5 mkii Tamron 400mm f/4 mf on the beach
Really difficult with birds on manual focus Gary. Good effort. Don't know if these are cropped, but always best to try and leave space for them to move into (sure you know that anyway). Is that fishing line on the swan. If so, hope it gets reported and removed. Dog is very nice :wink:

First DA560mm shots
First impressions Nuri, very pleased. Managed to walk further easily yesterday with camera,lens and tripod on my shoulder compared to FA 600mm. Focus is snappy, sharp wide open and colour rendition is good.

Random Sprinkle Update
I like numbers 1-9 inclusive. My route to work involves a 2.5-mile walk from London Victoria and back again, much of it along the Thames, but I rarely carry a tripod because commuter trains don't have enough space for people, never mind bulky photographic kit. Thanks for the tips, Mat. Now if you...
