Great news. Assuming that the ergonomics are no less good than the K3(II) and that even small improvements in focussing and processing have been incorporated then it should sell very well although as i'm still on a K-50 it will probably be too much of a financial leap for me initially...at least it will be there at the top of the APS-C heap for me to work towards.

Taken on a recent holiday flight UK-Greece. Spent a few hours when back home matching satellite imagery with what I captured.

1.Zagreb, Croatia



2. Zagreb Airport



3. Slansko Jezero, lake that translates simply as 'Salt Lake'...about 617m above sea level, Montenegro



4. Gulf of Kotor, Kotor town itself to extreme right of image, cruise ship visible was MSC Magnifica...just leaving after morning alongside



5. Sveti Nikola Island (largest island in Montenegro...about 2km long), offshore beach resort of Budva.



6. Bar (port) and Lake Scutari (in Italian). Scutari is the largest lake in Southern Europe and is approx 2/3rds in Montenegro and 1/3rd in Albania



7. Coast just north of Durres (2nd largest city in Albania)



Taken with K-50 / 18-55 DAL WR kit lens.

Really good.

Taken over two visits...K-50 / DA HD 55-300WR

SRS doing brand new K-1 bodies with 2 yr warranty for £999 over the weekend.

Must be body bargain of the Year given the very poor exchange rate at the moment.

Well done Rob.

No.4 is such a great image regardless of who the two people are...one of the best shots of its kind i've ever seen.

Your thread today for me is definitely the 'Thread of the Month' so far.

Best Wishes

Congratulations Rob on a cracking forum entry...first rate images with commentary to match.

I'll try and make time to watch the programme now as well.

Nice to read that Matt and Helen and indeed the crew were so friendly and approachable...genuinely nice people.

Regards

Karlo

Another great set Bill...possibly a bit varied than usual but with a very high standard set throughout...with possible exception for me of No.11.

My favourite ...for sheer impact as I scrolled down was No.14...brilliant detailed image.

regards

Karlo

To be fair ...it is a nice looking mug...wouldn't mind one myself. Maybe SRS could offer them as freebies with every body/lens purchase at Christmas?

Know what you mean though, a new APS-C Flagship would be nice, together with the 70-200 f4 and maybe one of the FF convertors...i'd be happy with those this year.
