Very nice set. My favourites are no 4, 6 and the last image.

Thank you for sharing!

Number one is my favourite. Great shot!

Very nice set of images. Wonderful vivid colours.

Number one is great!

My most recent DSLRs are a K-5 and a K-5iis. Great cameras. I have not found a need to "upgrade" (yet)

Ffordes.com currently have three (!!) Pentax LX for sale. One in immaculate condition and two in good condition. Could be interesting for someone:

Late version LX + FA-1 (mislabelled as FA-2) for sale at ffordes.com for £249,-

PS: *Has a Tobacco smell about it, hence the reduced price.

Some years ago I wanted to research the film compact niche. I purchased a Pentax Espio 24EW, an Olympus XA and an Olympus XA 3. The Pentax Espio 24EW is a very nice little camera with a usable zoom range and great build quality. The Olympus XA has a wonderfully sharp lens and is "really" compact. But in the end my iPhone is capable of imagery that contests these old film compacts, and is superior in at least one aspect: The iPhone (or an Android equivalent) is the camera you always have at hand. I have sold all my film compacts…

BTW: When taking into the account the price of film and developing these days, it does not make much sense to shoot film with anything but the best equipment. Very few compact film cameras can compete with a Pentax LX + FA 31/1.8 outfit in example.

Very nice set! I also like backlit foliage, an interesting subject with endless possibilities. My favourites are no 4, 6 and 9.

Thank you for sharing this review! This is the first thorough, intelligent, well written and competent review of the Pentax K-3iii I have read.
