Gorgeous

Makes your point well - and an interesting subtle starburst effect on the sun.

Castle Crag ?

In a slightly different context, but emphasising the growing gulf between the legal position and official/corporate attitudes and security concerns:

From today's paper

Thanks for the comments, everyone.

The last one benefited most from the K5s ability to keep detail in apparent blackness.

Almost all of the rocks at the bottom left were completely 'clipped' in the histogram and the shadow warning. The processed image would not take being blown up much beyond A4 because of halo-ing , but even so I'm mighty impressed.

Absolutely agree - other peoples backyards often fascinate more, but when you've got scenery like that on your doorstep

The first five on the list for my postcode are all Argos stores

As the other have said - really excellent shots! And as Mike said, amazing 3D effect.

Got up early yesterday to try to catch the sunrise on Kinder Scout. Cocked up my timings a bit, so couldn't get quite where I wanted in time. So rather than the carefully controlled compositions intended, I ended up just snapping away on the march. It was also bloomin' cold and surprisingly windy... to the point at which my fingers (and brain) stopped working properly.

So having got my excuses in ...

Gobsmacked at the amount of 'shadow detail' that can be retrieved in PP from the K5. Having got used to the K7 it seems almost scandalous (in a nice way!) that the K5 can get so much information from high dynamic range situations.

When (idly) researching filter systems earlier this year, I stumbled upon the Lee RF75 system - designed for rangefinder cameras with smaller elements for just this reason. But would it work on the DA15 without vignetting, and is it a better option for the DA Ltds than the full size (100) Lee system?? Anyone know??

As Simonkit's just set himself up with filter system for both the 12-24 and the DA15, it'll be interesting to see how he gets on in this regard... And particularly the use of grads with the small element of the DA15.

Many thanks for the useful comments, folks. Pretty clear message !
