Hello Paul, good advice from David and also consider the K5 II. If your not needing to sell the K10D to help the funding, keep it.

Best regards

The girl in yellow must be an Ozzy, tattoo and a stuby in hand.

A good set.

I'm going with the edge compo as well. Just as a side observation, you have also captured several forms of construction materials here, from the simple brick wall, cast concrete, aluminum and timber.

There's more to this image than initial observation suggests.

Best regards

Also, there has been a lot of comment about image noise on the K-3, i.e. that it is worse than the K-5 series. In practical everyday use this is pretty much a non-issue, there may be a little more noise, but it cleans up easier and is not intrusive.
To correct the above.... the image noise is worse on the K-3 at high ISO's. 6400 and greater.

For those who regularly shoot at very high ISO's then it would be an issue in everyday use. For those who don't or very rarely shoot at such high ISOs then it's not going to be an issue.
I agree with you Smeggy. As I use the K3 I find it to be quite a step up in every other area except noise at high ISO. That doesn't impact my shooting but fully agree it's of little comfort to your needs.

You may end up hanging onto your K5's for some time as I can't see a lower noise model on the horizon and the latest input from Rice High is saying that there will NOT be a FF Pentax until after the new 645D arrives.

That is bad news if true for those who want Pentax FF but at least we can use our FF Ltd's on the Sony body if needs.

I am slowly being drawn towards a Df in silver to use alongside my K3 SE. I think they will compliment each other on a double harness.

Stay in your comfort zone Smeggy and enjoy the ride.

Best regards

Likewise Don.

The UK weather is rather off at the moment but it's good to see my mother this year.

As for the above images, excellent work as usual.

Best regards

Are they that crap
No they are not.

The second last shot possibly sums up the forum mood at the moment, quite a few people watching and others distracted (maybe by Xmas).

Some focus issues on some of the shots. I have to assume that you don't do much of this type of photography as some key moments are missed. Sports photography is not a given and takes quite some time and effort to get polished results.

The response of the photographer and being able to read a situation is critical to get the shot timing correct.

Have a great Xmas Eve and consider the timing/focus strategy for a Boxing Day event.

Best regards

Only question now is "should I buy here a steam iron or a cheaper model and a water spray bottle".
You should ask Mike-P for advice on that. He bought his missus a new ironing board a couple of years back.
That's taking it to new heights. A flat floor was always good enough.
