Not shooting so many gigs nowadays due to other commitments but when I heard Suede where touring I so wanted to photograph them. Brett had this remote controlled spotlight above him making for gorgeous concert shots.

All ISO 1600

Because we're not used to camera review sites fawning so positively over pentax equipment before

im curious, looking at your sig which lens would you use with a teleconverter? because i dont think an af tele will work to good with the 300mm and with the 50-135 will fall short of your 300.

Until pentax bring out a 300 2.8 or 400 2.8 a tele will be wasted I feel.

I guess they survey the home market, the fact they have one on the road map shows they must have done research to come up with the r & d for a teleconverter.

K3 vs D600

Can anyone explain to me how a photographer can take a shot of a living, breathing dog, swap cameras and then take another from exactly the same location, without the dog having moved a hair?

Thoughts? Is this a spoof?

Andrew

Usually these kind of shots are done side by side with a wireless remote which will trigger both cameras at the same time

The DA 50 is an absolute steal, very little difference in IQ between that and the f 1.4 apart from build and slightly faster glass. The DA is also a great little razor sharp lens, I think the two plastic fantastic will offer better options than the 40mm.

What about when new wifi standards come out, you can upgrade the card and keep your body up to date... The flu card will also like other wifi cards most possibly have memory capacity still.

To be honest the eye fi card I have you really only need the one card. I have the 16gb version but it has a never run out option so just keeps uploading when full and deleting the earliest photos first to write over...

I do like the ability to view the images on an iPad. That would be really good for checking focus etc as I personally find the rear screens make everything look good in the field, and find pixel peaking quite difficult to check that well on the rear screen as often it all looks really good on the bright rear screen.

Can do that now with various wifi sd cards.
