Hi, I've not posted much lately as busy with family life including son's wedding Saturday.I also have nothing to add about K1's which most seem to use now.

Last Wednesday was chilly and dull BUT the dogs loved it. A few to show what my K3II and the 55 - 500 PLM can do. I think i ditched about 20%

Zenon is the 4 year old male we own, Penny is 10 owned by son Adam, but she has the brains to run rings round the boy still

The first one is pretty good too with bags of action.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

They do seem to be having a great time, and nicely captured too


Whether your using a K1 or a K3 or K10D or a *ist DS really doesn't matter - it's a tool to allow you to capture the images you want. Some models are better suited to particular tasks but at the end of the day if you're happy with the way your camera works and the results are what you're after then you're onto a winner - as you clearly are!

Hope you have/had a great day at the wedding Bill

Thanks lennybloke. Wedding was great fun AND I managed to snap a few moments even though I was on official Father of the groom duties. billbarnes.co.uk for some pics.

My hope is that there are still such high end APS=C models from Pentax int he future. I photograph wildlife and the K1 is NOT what I need for lightweight walkabout telephoto if I need to replace in future. Shame i can't buy some of Sigma and Tamron lenses of late for such.

Had a perusal of the wedding photos Bill - looks like a great fun day

I don't see why Pentax wouldn't carry on producing top quality APS-C models - many of the technology developments are interchangeable between the two formats so effectively the costs are shared between the formats (even into the 645 series) - and Pentax do have one of the most extensive APS-C lens line ups already and appear to be planning more. I think the APS-C future is bright
