It was the K-1.

The latest AP (dated 7th July) has a very positive field review of the K-1 on a challenging trip to the Faroe islands. It's an interesting read.

Great to hear of good service!

Yes, it's not a problem, just wouldn't want anyone to waste an entry by posting in the wrong area. Why not repost as suggested?

Don't forget this isn't the place for entries, this is the thread for discussion about the competition.

I've corrected the competition numbers, thanks for pointing it out.

The ideal is the 150-450mm, but it's heavy and expensive. Failing that, how about second hand?

Brilliant results. You might like the John Rylands Library on Deansgate in Manchester. It offers some similar opportunties.

That was a very interesting bit of writing, many thanks for sharing your thoughts.

I reviewed all three FA Limited lenses for EPZ, unfortunately not on the latest high resolution cameras, and when we say "better than" or "big improvement" we do need to define in what way we mean that. Of the three lenses, the 43mm was the weakest in terms of resolution, but it was the one of the three that I kept. So there are clearly other factors that create the overall "look" and "quality" of a lens. The 43mm has such a look and IMHO delivers nicer looking images that the rather "bland" rendition of the 50mm f/1.4.
These of course are all emotive descriptions and very imprecise, but I do think there's no doubt that regardless of MTF50 graphs there are other "soft" measurements that make up the overall quality of any lens.
