Just for a bit of fun and to get used to using my newly acquired DA*50-135, I've taken a few shots of our Tibetan Terrier Daisy, in her normal poses at home tonight. I'm pleased with the results the 50-135 gives, it certainly seems to have some 'Pixie Dust' inside it!

CC welcomed as always. All shots with the K-3 at ISO 1600, F4, hand held at either 1/6 or 1/8 of a second shutter speed.

a good subject for your tests. I like them, esp. no. 3. You have a steady hand at those shutter speeds!

Thanks all for the comments, first impressions of the DA*50-135 are that it is a wonderful lens, yes it's a little slow in the AF department, but it seems to focus accurately and the rendering is just fantastic, especially at wider apertures.
