We have just returned from a week in the Norfolk broads, and the place is swarming with butterflies i am happy to say.

I am not a photographer of them, but while walking the dogs I did spot this fellow. One of the elusive Swallowtails.

Great set. For playing i always prefer the traditional wooden Staunton sets, but yours are clearly better for photography.

Number 6 for me. Very thought provoking. Try it as a square crop , i could see it as an album cover.

Showing my age there...i mean CD cover....errr...i mean downloadable album artwork for your itunes player.

At the 16x magnification there didn't seem to be too much difference so I wondered whether the complete JPG was being shown on screen.
When checking your picture for focus accuracy/sharpness immediately after taking it, you should use 100% view, no more. This is 10x on the K1. You can set the zoom control (rear wheel) to default to 10x with one click of the wheel via a custom setting.

I have just tried the DA1.4 converter with a Tamron 70-200 full frame lens on the K1 and it works just fine.
In crop (aps-c) mode it should work fine. It cannot work in FF mode though, surely ?

I have noted that the K1 is still unlisted but it maybe because the K1 has a dedicated site where you can post images but not sure otherwise why they don't include their flagship DSLR if that is not the case.
Even if that were the case (doubtful) it does not explain why the DFA 24-70 or DFA 150-450 are not included.

My only conclusion is that this website has been forgotten. Keeping anything other than the main Pentax Japan website up to date is a failing of Pentax going back many years. Take a look at the Ricoh/Pentax UK website for example. Latest K1 firmware update on that site is for v 1.30. We have had v1.4 and v1.41 since then.

Very poor.
