The DA*300 is sharper than the equivalent Nikkor (I have both)

So, before we all think it's the end of the world that there is no K-3 and the DA560 costs the same as a small car, the lemmings going to other brands will find the grass isn't greener on the other side.
So do we both qualify as lemmings as we both use Nikon kit?

As for greener grass, why are you using Nikon?

Best regards

I've only 3 days left in the UK. It's been a hectic visit. Autumn is upon us, so it's off to warmer climates where spring has started. That said, great weather here over the last week.

All credit where credit is due. An excellent set of images. Stunning detail and evocative style.

An excellent set of images. A first class demonstration of how to use such a lens.

Pentax need to advertise more. Why not a tv ad where lots of people are taking pictures, then it starts to rain and every puts their camera away leaving just the person with a Pentax still shooting.Jeff
Would those be just the Pentax users with WR bodies and lenses?

Why would the Canikon users who use WR Canikons stop shooting?

There seems to be a lot of odd perceptions of other brands in this thread.

Be happy with what you use.

I covered fashion shows several months back. I used the K5, D700 and D7000. Neither the K5 or the D7000 would lock on in the evening sessions which were in very poor light. The D700 locked on without fail. Maybe I need to bin the K5 and D7000 and get a Panasonic as a back up camera.

I thought the point of having a through the lens optical viewfinder was to facilitate composing and focusing? why not switch to manual focus in low light?
With girls on the move and swirling, it did not occur to me at the time. If a piece of kit will do the job, best to use it. I've no reason not to use MF and often use it with macro shots.

Nice and sharp with vivid colour throughout. Yes, No.2 carries the vote, a good capture.

Sigma 10-20mm FOV of a 15-30mm on cropped sensors,

Nikon 16-35mm on Fx must qualify as wide angle at its lower range and has VR.
