Low light performance is very good as well as its overall performance, I have one that the Mrs now uses, must be close to 10 years old now and still performs superbly well.

I've shot over 3200 iso on the K1 with virtually no noise, you can also run the image through a noise cleaner if you wish.

Studio lighting is fairly easy once you've grasped the basics and I always set up the lighting myself, it's worth having a flash meter if your using multiple lights, my normal set up is 2 lights on the background, particularly if the intention is white and one or two on the model.

The shot below is with a K1 @ 1600 ISO

Excellent shots, its been a cracking year for fungi with the damp and fairly warn conditions

Similar to Peter, other than none of my images reside on my desktop, they all sit on 3 separate hard drives and backed up after every major shoot and if we go away, I take one with me and a neighbour looks after one as well.

#2 and #4 for me, showing the texture and ripples

For me they work as a threesome, the lighter one being in the centre as you have them and the horizon lines look like they'll roughly match up
