Spot on....I shot 3 images at 0/-1/-2 and merged the raw files in LR. Then the processing starts !!!

Bedham church near Petworth, West Sussex

It is a lovely colour whatever it is called.

Pork pies and crisps...mmmmm

However the white plate has led to underexposure here

Your 12-24 will be usable in the 16-24 range, so stick with that for the moment.

The DFA 24-70 2.8 is an excellent zoom for the K1 and I recommend that. The K1 plus 24-70 is not a lightweight combination though and if you want something that enables you to walk around all day with the camera over your shoulder you may be better with the DFA 28-105.

I assume you have the DA* 200mm. That is fully compatible with FF. It won't be as fast at focussing as the newer lenses DFA 70-200 DFA 70-210 or DFA 150-450 however.

You could also have a look at some primes. The FA LTD series (31mm/43mm/77mm) are excellent FF lenses and are light and compact. The FA 50mm 1.4/1.7 is also a good lightweight choice and can be got second hand very reasonably. The recent DFA 50mm 1.4 is a stellar lens but again your are getting into big and heavy territory.

What kind of photography do you do ? That may help with advice.

Smashing set Gareth. 1 + 4 for me

Lovely image. Colours are so rich when they first bloom.

Thanks John.

I convert the raw file to a TIFF, then open the latter in Photoshop. Using PS b+w tools I play around with coloured filter effects until I get broadly the image I like. Then I use curves layers to selectively increase/decrease exposure by painting on the mask.
