What the AF like in low light ?
Pretty good, the last shot with the cyclists head on was under heavy shaded trees, they appeared at a decent pace and it nailed the focus first time, 21 spots used. BBF

I needed 800 iso just to get 1/50th sec with a bit of DOF @ F6.3, noise wise, good useable images certainly up to and including 3200 iso, not really needed to be above that so far, they clean up well in post.

Thanks John, a lot more nailed the focus this time than the last time I was here, 104 images shot, 102 sharp.

The last one ( the head on shot ) even the K1 would prob have not nailed the focus

#3 looks like a stunning hoar frost and #4 with the reflections is superb.

Well shot, a post perspective tweak needed perhaps

Here's the trigger

Looks to be about £80 from here

A quick google was all that was needed

As above and also continuous focus, single point focus and look at " back button focusing " a technique in keeping your thumb on the " AF " button which will keep the camera in constant focus mode with your trigger finger on the shutter button.

The shot below was with a 150mm lens plus a decent crop
