My personal favourite was the K-10D...last of the CCD sensors I believe. Other preferred cameras were the K-50 and brace yourselves the K-500. Relatively easy to use but also capable of producing the images I wanted. I'm just sad that I can no longer use such a relatively large system because of health issues.

Are you hand-holding or using a tripod/monopod?
What shutter speed/ aperture are you using?
I had this lens with a K50 and it was absolutely well it was good. Sadly I no longer have either.
I found that if I shot at ISO 400 and f8 I could hand hold at the long end at about 1/400 maybe on a good day 1/250.

Do you use filters or just stick the lens on and go?

K-01 is based on K5 sensor so it's APSC takes K series lenses, lovely images, what more need be said.
OK so there's no viewfinder- you will get used to it but then again the Q doesn't have a viewfinder..
I've had two K-01s and wish I'd still got one but hey that's down to personal circumstances.

Have you unzipped the file and copied it to the root directory of your card?

I think your shutter speeds are too slow for those lenses- I would suggest 1/500 as a starting point- up the iso to 400, then hopefully the lens will be able to stop down a bit and your images will be a bit sharper.
