A good set, can only spot the kr by looking at the exif data.
No2 looks slightly under exposed, do not like the background on No 5 and 6.
But good examples of the capabilities of this lens.

Very nice shots
I wonder if you would use a slighty faster shutter speed if that would have helped getting sharper photos with some of these?

The noise is a bit more with the Kr in the background and the finer details appears better with the K5.

Comparing the background of No3 against No3 I can see that now. The noise is a bit more with the Kr in the background and the finer details appears better with the K5
Thanks Stefan, another reason to get the K5
Am doing my best to resist, but the sea is relentless.

yep it would Stefan but i was trying to keep my iso low for some reason , the light was changing a lot. Have'nt used my k5 for a while and found after using k-r the menu system takes a while to re adjust too , kept using one wheel

That set certainly gets the LBA happening! Nice work. Without peeking at the EXIF data, I'm guessing 5 or 8 as the K-r shot?

Excellent results with the new lens
The colour balance on the last two looks off... the birds
feet are too blue? Auto white balance gets a bit confused under
the green light of trees and uses Fluorescent
