I would love to try aperture unfortunately apple don't go trial periods so i just stuck with lightroom.

I have a laptop for sale is it allowed in the classifieds?

A couple of years ago at T in thePark it rained non stop and on the second day my k-5 developed condensation inside the rear LCD screen, this was with a DA* 50-135mm fitted, by the morning it had dried out, but within a couple of hours later did it again. When I got home I just put it in a box with a large bag of silica. Have had it happened a few times since then but never had any issues with fungus or mould.

could you slide a piece of credit card down there???

Yup his last job was driving new cars of the ferries at immingham for minimum wage.... Truly sad

I really like these David, the whole set has a really good aesthetic quality.

The 70-200mm 2.8 would have been the equivalent of a 120-300mm 2.8 which would have been more useful for sports than the 80-250 f/4 which is not really a sports orientated lens.

i don't think Pentax are a sports orientated brand. They have niches but sports isn't one of them. If it was we wouldn't have the need for threads like this.

I also think if sports was important to Pentax they would have brought out a 2.8 70-200mm lens by now.

Nice shots, but just to add ti the earlier comment re action all over the pitch. These are shot in day light at f/5.6 iso 400 and 1/1000 you will not be able to use those settings at a football match for example as over a third of a Saturday afternoon footbal match is under floodlight conditions. Other matches are on a weeknight.

shooting predictable sports in great light conditions is one thing, shooting unpredictable action sports like football in low light is another environment completely.

Uf ISO limits are important get a k-5 mkii ir mkiis and with the money you saved get some nice glass.
