Viewing Barrie's steelworks image surely must show that, in the 2020's, the image upload size permitted here should be greater than 800px?

Superb. I've never seen a steel works look so atmospheric.

Is it mist or polution??

(I wonder if it is the toning that might give an impression of pollution.)

Indeed very good (but remove the blurred twig, bottom left).

Wonderful images showing your great vision - all too often mine is just muddy.

I've often ponderd what an improved MX-1 (MX-2?) should be:-
- bigger sensor,
- faster max. frame rate,
- slightly lighter (I know some like all the the weight),
- better auto white balance in artificial light,
- better low light performance, and
- weather & dust resistance (This could have been a USP in this category).

Any other thoughts?
- viewfinder
- hot-shoe
- fast processor

If it follows recent silly naming practice, even though it would be a new camera 7 years on, it would be the Pentax MX-1 Mark II.

Whoever bought it is a lucky person! I don't use mine very often (mainly KP now) but, when I do, the image quality even SOOC still amazes me. Better than other similar small sensor cameras I've had (Fuji, Samsung, Lumix, Olympus) all of which have been sold. Ebay prices appear to show that the MX-1 is actually increasing in value. I have always wished that Pentax had developed that line but, as that is highly unlikely, I doubt that I would ever sell mine.

#3 for me - wonderful presentation of the light, shadows and leaves, plus no distractions in the background.

A fascinating set, John. #7 looks quite eerie.
