Some cracking shots there Simon and #3 is definitely an example of being in the right place at the right time although could quite easily not have been

Like this set. Well seen and taken

Thanks Algi the Form is in the post. I have bought a whisky on your behalf and you are enjoying it very much

Very unlikely with my defective hearing so unless my wife hears it, I'll ask her to listen carefully when I take a shot and see if she hears anything. I wear hearing aids and if it's at all noisy or windy I have have a problem hearing the "beep" when the camera is focused, but watch this space

Thanks Algi. I'm a bit worried a selfie will show all my wrinkles and make me look too old to own a nice camera like this

I need to go through the settings menu and do a little tweaking there. Does obviously feel "different" to the gripped K-5IIs but fits my "bloody great paws" as my hands have been referred to and I can hold it with one hand although with a lens such as the 18-135mm I think this could get tiring, but for normal shooting, two hands, this is not going to be a problem. The main thing for me was the fact I can hold the camera while shooting without accidentally touching any of the other buttons on the back, a problem for me with the Panasonic G6. I would advise anyone thinking of getting the K-S2 to go to a stockist, if possible as I did, and try holding it etc. I did like the articulating viewing screen on the G6 for low level shooting and shooting directly overhead ceiling details say in churches etc., without dislocating my neck and expect the Pentax version to fulfill this too. Haven't tried any selfies yet although again think this camera will be up the mark. So all in all a satisfied customer, well for now anyway
