I remember the GX-10 being thrown in under a running tap with the DA* attached to it, so I'm thinking what you got was a lemon in terms of the K5 considering that the K5 is several generations newer. Nice to hear you're back on track!

Argh, I think I couldn't have done better than what you did here, not even close. Action shots are alien to me, but these are very good photos, you captured a lot of the right actions superbly!
My favourite's the Subaru pic.

That hits the nail there. Comments are welcome, and criticisms usually are only okay if the original poster expressed so.The basic principle is that when somebody puts up an image they have invested some of themselves in it.

Then again we have images that scream of wanting to be criticized! Especially marklj's photos, all of them. My main criticism would be: You should have taken me with you when you took those shots! LOL

Very nice suggestion Axel. I'm not sure how we can implement this here but maybe we can have some guidelines (mods, help please? ) on how to *properly* critic a photo in all brutal honesty, without offending someone (good luck with that! LOL).
Although the following topic, I believe, pretty much sums it up for everyone: https://www.pentaxuser.com/forum/topic/making-comments-on-images-11282
So if someone was not happy with my "Bird Images from the London Underground", I'd take it like a man and cry in the corner.

I saw this a while ago, nice to see they have it on Tumblr now, faster and uniform. I have a photo stored somewhere of me back in early 80's with Stonehenge in the distance, and me again at the very same spot 20 years later. Now off to find it...

Can't seem to find it on eBay, care to provide a link? Thanks in advance! My eyesight isn't as good as it used to be. As does the magnifier 'M' I got mine for £10 on Ebay.
