Prague with the K1

I spent a long weekend in Prague a few weeks ago giving the K1 its first proper workout, it didn't let me down!

Yes, the colours are clean and natural in the night shots, and there's an impressive visible dynamic range in that first one. A good first workout!

Just Flickr'd through the set on Flickr - some excellent photos, far better at the larger sizes

Well done, these are great, the camera most certainly didn't let you down and neither did you let the camera down!

Did you use the pixel shift mode?

These look really nice.

No these are all just standard 36mp non pixel shift. I didn't think my Gorilla pod would be sturdy enough to push it too much!
