I do have a 64 AF1, Pentax fit, boxed and pretty much as new, if you're not able to do an effective repair on your 58 AF2 that I'd be happy to accept a reasonable and fair offer on.

Imho, the K3 series have a touch more noise than the K5ii and low light performance is a tad better,but all 3 and I've had one of each are superb.

just a bit of channel swapping on this one.

Yep, me to

Not sure where your based but Don Clarke camera repairs in Wootton under Edge, High Street, Gloucestershire is good.

I've used him before, not the quickest but service and price I considered reasonable

A few from the weekend

K3iii + 150mm - 450mm at 450mm - 100 ISO - handheld and manual focus.

Really appreciate your comments Peter / John

It is a decent event, I got into the city early to capture some of the cars without any " photo bombers " as leave it to mid morning and you've no chance of a clean shot.

With each of the portraits, I took less than 30 seconds to approach, engage and shoot.

A free festival in the gated streets of Gloucester now extending out to the docks and Kings Square.

Been running for 6 years or so now, every late Aug B/h weekend, I've gone every year, iro 500+ cars fill the city with many drivers / passengers in period costume, live music and other events.

All the portraits were stopped and asked and naturally posed in the street

A selection of images as below, all with K1 + either the Sigma 85mm F1.4 or the DFA* 70 - 200 F2.8

Morning Kris

Have you been able to try the Gimbal yet, will one work for you with the angles you need for the church ceilings etc ?

I could probably do with it back soon-ish please as I've some product photography in the pipeline

Use an O ring on the filter thread, it does work
