Not what I expected

Having made an early start on Bank Holiday Monday to try my hand at photographing some building before the shops open, my wife and me were having a cup of coffee near Exeter Cathedral. I noticed, who I thought was a tramp walking down the road towards us. Thinking I wouldn't get a chance to take a photo as he was facing my direction he suddenly stopped, put his bag down on the wall and produced a DSLR and started taking photos of the cathedral.

Ah! but it's not a Pentax, but good shot, just goes to show you that appearances can be deceptive, and was he manually focusing or zooming?

it does in deed jack, its a s*ny dslr, booooo

Its not a s*ny Scott, its a Minolta.
I had to crop in on the lens to check though as i wasn't sure.

As I said, appearances can be deceptive,

Nice capture. If I may suggest a crop to remove the blown highlight on the left.

Could still be a Sony - Minolta lenses fit Sonys don't forget.

Nice capture.

minolta is sony now,

Yeah I know, remembered just after I posted...
It was a Minolta though...Honest

yeah yeah i believe you

What about the focusing or zooming thing

Just had another look and cropped in on the camera. It's a Dynax 5D and the focus switch is set to MF..
