Oh I forgot to add, my new Peak design hand strap or hand clutch as they like to describe it.
It is great with the K1 and I'm sure any other camera also as it firmly grips and balances the weight of the camera and shakes of my old body. It is my most used accessory as I do not like neck straps.
Brilliant bit of kit that I will never take off and comes with a Swiss Arca base plate as stantard so perfect for my tripod and never needs to be removed.
Beware though Manfrotto tripod owners, the base plate will be some 30 smackers extra.
Yes it is, my most used accessory.

Waggy, be prepared to be blown away when you first get a half decent full frame lens.

Nicely balanced B@W photographs Gareth, especially No 3 with the kid flying through the scene. Great timed shot and composer to keep the composition aligned perfectly.
I have also just received recently an Irix 15mm from MPB Berlin, it was down as the fire fly version but when i opened the the box it was the Blackstone all magnesium version. seriously, it was stamped firefly on the outer box with MPBs own barcode. Optics are the same of course but a nice score all the same.
Anyway I digress but only took a quick few test shots hoping that everything was okay, Seems fine across the frame

That first shot Loadof, in this thread is the winner, battered and repaired so many times but the local Council put in a safe entrance. love the deep light in the sky and the highlights from them stones. Spotting the light is the journey for all

Handled like a pro is number 5, the architectural photo that is , as it is superbly balanced for scale, nice B@W. Did you shoot raw and edit or jpeg in camera as the result is superb
