Simon, not your usual fare - not a race car in sight.

2, 3, 5 and 8 are the ones that really work for me. You do realise that now you have the K-3, you'll really get taken to task should any of your motorsport be even the tiniest bit 'soft'!

3 & 4 for me - as these are your first "out of the box", I'm tempted to put mine away and give up!

There are some crackers here that, not least show a) what a good eye can do; and b) what a superb camera the K-5iiS is (very glad that I've got one).

I always format 'in camera' - never had a problem when I've done that.

Absolutely - memory cards are cheap, revisiting rarely is and is frequently impossible.

Don't worry about people who say you don't need photoshop. Our learned friend is one of a kind. Every digital image needs processing, whether its by accepting the decisions made by the software in the camera, or by personal decisions in photoshop/lightroom, etc
+1 - every digital image has been 'manipulated' to some degree or another whether by the processing in the most basic point & shoot camera, the camera in your phone or the most sophistcated DSLR.

Absolutely no criticism here - the detail is superb, and as John noted, the control of the DoF really makes th images come alive.

I'm afraid I've been a bit poor at keeping up, but - #2 an absolute stunner, I can just echo what others said.

#3 - a lovely portrait, and a great conversion.

#4 - you really captured the determination of both the horse and rider, another super shot.

I use one for the very few 'e-cards' that I send. It's a rather hackneyed shot of a Robin in a tree that I put in my Gallery in August, although shot at RHS Wisley at the beginning of March.
