Would not worry too much how many times others shot a location. What counts is, this one is yours! Lovely shots. Color for me. It's a tricky mono conversion because of the brickwork. Think it would require much bigger black and white contrast for the bridge to look really good, which in turn could render the rest a bit 'overcooked' IMO. The color version is lovely as is

I only ever used it with flash in manual mode as an auto, it tends to overexpose quite a bit. Currently on holidays so can't check but happy to test when I get back home in 10 days.

I am personally waiting for the K3 successor to be announced before deciding whether or not to buy the K1. It would make sense for some of the K1 functions to be ported to the next APS-C. If it comes with a bit better low light performance, improved autofocus, the screen from the K1 than it may very well be a sweet choice. As much as I like how the K1 handles and the IQ it produces, both the lens prices and sizes scare me a bit.

Ah, cheers Steve. I saw Bill's images and they are stunning; didn't realize it comes with a proper name.

That said, static things remain static while using the in camera mode so not quite the same I don't think.

Also, pretty sure the skill level required for using the in camera mode is much lower than what Bill produces! All you need is an idea, set the camera on the tripod, pick a number of shots and fire away - than pick and choose the best if you opt to save all stages; which I found is very useful and full proof.

Now, what would happen if one tried to combine that two....

Thank you again. Glad I'm not the only one that likes them ; would not be the first time

Apologies David for failing to explain it better. To be honest, I wasn't sure what it is and how it worked when reading about, it only became clear when used. But then, I'm a much more of a 'learn by doing' person.

Inspired idea, wonderfully executed. Is it a coincidence that the feature abbreviates to ICM?
Hm, not sure what else ICM may stand for, sorry!

Thanks again for taking the time to comment.

Can't possibly have been taken with a K1, as this camera is totally incapable of autofocussing
No 2 is a corker!
Good thing these aren't bicycles...
