Fun With The K30

[Craftysnapper]

Paul, can you share which lenses you use? Which ones for the portraits?
Great images!

Thank you both were taken with the smc PENTAX-DA 55-300mm F4-5.8 ED.

The one with three people to ensure all three face were in focus was at 1/500s f/9.0 at 77.5mm iso1250 .

The other one of Chelsea was at 1/500s f/7.1 at 150.0mm iso640.

The high shutter speeds are because my hands are not to steady these day.

Thanks a lot!
I also would like to use it as a weatherproof , light, fast outdoor camera.
My tendency is to get a k5iis with a 18-135 and a 43/1.8 ( I like 50mm for or slightly longer for allround use).

Not what the Pentax 100mm macro is usually used for.
