If you set HSS on the flash unit you will be able to select a shutter speed above the X-sync speed. If you select a speed at or below X-sync you will see the HSS change on the flash unit to non HSS mode, at least on the Pentax dedicated units.

Well done Toby, and you too Adrian. I love the last one, really nice shot.

Spaniels and their ears.....don't get me started !

I've been considering the 60-250, you say minimal vignetting, have you done the FF rear baffle mod?
I have not used it extensively yet with the K1, but from what I see so far it is so minimal, only at widest aperture, and so easily corrected in PP that I won't be performing surgery on the baffle.

I have only bought one new "modern" lens since acquiring the K1 in November and that is the DFA 24-70 2.8 which I think is a terrific lens. Indeed i have sold my DA*16-50 and FA 24-90 to help raise funds !

So current line-up:

D-FA 24-70 f2.8
DA* 60-250 f4 (works well with minimal vignetting)

FA*24 f2
FA 31 LTD f1.8
FA 43 LTD f1.9
FA 77 LTD f1.8
FA* 85 f1.4
DA* 300 f4 (FF compatible)

F 1.7X AF converter
A 2X-S converter

I still have the DA 40 f2.8 and DA 70 f2.4. I have not tried these yet on the full frame format and may well put these up for sale as I don't need the focal lengths.

If I want to go wider than my lens line-up I can use the M 20 f4 and A 16 f2.8 Fisheye from my "collection"

Excellent post. Not only a very effective reflector, but a good bit of recycling too.

Does it make your camera bag pong ?

Nice shots. I walk our dogs every day on Horsell Common in Surrey which has a big (reputedly) Adder population. In the last 3.5 years I have only ever seen two. One was a baby at 5 inches long, but one was a good 2 footer. Luckily on both occasions I noticed them before the dogs could investigate.
