Photo Information

First real test for the K3+Sigma 70-200 at a one day event yesterday. I wanted to close up on both horse and riders' faces without losing the action.

Very nice Sally, it certainly looks better when viewed large. I have not had the chance to use my K3 for equine work since i purchased it, but i can't wait to use it this year.

How are you finding the Sigma 70mm - 200mm on the K3? What camera were you using prior to the K3?

Regards

Thank you very much, Giulio and Gareth !
I was using the Kx and DA 55-300 which can produce very good shots, but not in bad light.
