Took these with the K-30 on todays walk with the dogs.

Thank you for looking Stan.

Great set of pics David and I love the portrait in particular.

That pic of Robin Hood's Bay makes me wish I had walked down there when I was there touring around N Yorkshire. But at 60+ a gammy knee and asthma that walk back up the hill looked daunting and I chickened out.

Very nice autumn scene Alan.

Some decent light at last, well at least for one day, grey and miserable again this morning.
All taken from yesterdays mornings walk with the dogs and the K-30+DA 55-300mm.

Thank You Don.

Gabriel and Bella during todays rather damp and dreary walk.















Pentax K-30 & 50-200mm ISO 1600 and 2000.

I think you did great under the lighting conditions and I like the composition and colours.

On a personel post processing note for me the brightness of the water on the right hand side could do with taking down as it takes to much attention from the rest of the scene in shadow.

Thanks guys I just need some none grey days now.

I had a pleasant surpise with the kit 18-55 WR lens, the image quality of the one that came with my K-r was abismal even when stopped down but this one is a great improvement over it, in build and IQ.

My Pentax K30 just arrived a couple of hours ago, lousy very dull light so just a quick ten minutes in the garden to test it out and a couple indoors, I mean you have to don't you.

All taken with the kit lenses and handheld.

My initial thoughts are that it is a big improvement on the K-r and handles very well and all in all it is a very traditional photographers camera which suits me. My biggest disapoint is that CaptureOne does not yet support the raw files.

My better half who was not to pleased I had taken it.
