A very old (1st gen, I think!) Sigma17-70 "does it" for me - dirt cheap from a fellow PU member several years ago, and it's very sharp, quick to focus and reliable, and has proven a very capable day-to-day "do it all" tool .
I have this lens and it got lots of use.

Great set but the swan in the dark background stands out for me, beautifully posed and captured. You must have got really close to the owl, was it a tame one?
Thank you for your feedback and yes the owl was tame.

Hi Phil,

Apologies, didn't get chance last night to check my K3ii, have done this morning, theres nothing I can see that resembles anything like your image of what may have dropped from the camera, I asked re the Fuji as I have an X100s so cant answer re the X30
Thank you, Chris, for your help re this matter very kind of you. The cameras are both working well which is the main thing.

Regards Ian

Ok, I'll check my K3 later this evening and see if anything looks similar, what was the Fuji camera ?

What camera did it possibly come from ? was a battery grip attached ?

Was the shim found directly underneath the camera ? on the floor ? or ......... ?
I'm not sure Chris as I had both the K3 and my fuji on the bed. I found the shim after putting the cameras away.

Regards Ian PS The battery grip was not attached to the K3.

I have this lens and is usually my go-to lens. When I didn't want to lug around a bag
