Today with your Pentax

Thanks for sharing, James. Interesting images. That rear screen is super useful, isn't it?

Here's today's catch.

Pentax K-1 mII Limited Silver and Pentax-M 50mm f4.0 Macro at f8.0, 1/60s, and ISO 800

And this one with my 85mm which I had a little bit of a scare with. I was getting blurry photos while out and about with it. I thought it might be my eyesight or my technique, or maybe the lens was "going bad," but in the end it turned out my Shake Reduction system was set to 400mm. Made that correction, and everything was fine again.

It's very rare that I use it if the camera isn't on a tripod, but this is one of those times where yes it's super useful to get the framing just as I wanted :)
Yes indeed. ( I am a short person so yes that is a useful feature at times. I use my moving LCD screen when my camera is really low sometimes eg 15to30 shots. Those times low to ground being a short person is an ADVANTAGE . . YES AT LAST an advantage being a short legs person . )

Nice pictures. You got something pentax from the coronation.

You get a 'Like" from me on this one for sure, because I'm a sucker for cool motorcycle pix...
But hey, that wisteria shot with the blue shutters background is an even better catch!

The shake reduction feature is a massive advantage for many many things. It is miraculous.

Yes Keep the photos coming.

My new computer arrived today, so I spent a bunch of time unpacking, putting together, and setting things up. Still had time for a walkabout, much to the delight of the dog.

Here's today's catch.

Great walk about.
When I changed my laptop last time the screen image quality went up a few notches. The screens are great these days even mid range screens.

I like your choice of framing on these. Very nice colors, too. And that motorbike--very cool!
