As a few of you know I photograph BriSCA F1 and F2 Stock Cars, plus a few other forms of short oval racing.

I think I bought up the subject of SR on or off a while ago, I have now done quite a few tests and my personal conclusion is this.

The results differ between my K5 and my K5II.

K5 + 300mm DA* ~ I have the SR on ( SR on, pin sharp / SR off blurred )

K5II + 300mm DA* ~ I have the SR off ( SR on, blurred / SR off pin sharp )

But...when using my 60-250 DA* I have to have the SR off on both cameras.

Why they should differ I just don't know.

Regards,

Chris.

I saw that on their website. I'd love to go. I am a novice and am trying to get to grips with my camera. If you can put up with me let me know

I'll be there from around 10.00am, just look out for someone with a large camera bag and a Pentax slung round his neck.

Regards,

Chris.

The first four have some strange colour balances.

Hi,

I think it's due to my attempt to 'clean' them up, I was shooting through the dust due to a very dry track.
