Fun with images taken with the Pentax K1

Something a little bit different:
I biought Laowa also for panoramas.
Kraków Main Square Little Planet.
24 shots 60 degree horizontally 45 degree vertically 3 lines plus up and down :)
at the end panorama is quite big :)

OFC all processing lost alot of data but sill 1:1 is quite good

Best

This is the same bit of rocks as my posted 645D image in the Medium Format section. I had the interval parameters set wrong for this one, but was able to salvage this.

K-1, 15-30mm @ 15mm, sky - about 100 30 sec interval shots, ISO 800, f/2.8. Foreground taken when not completely dark, 80 sec, f/10, ISO 100. Blended in Photoshop. Many, many, many white dots. Spent way too much time spotting them out.

First time in over 3 months I've been out with the "big rig" this morning.
Usual attack by the midges (main reason I don't shoot in summer) but survived!

2 Images, pixel shift in Rawtherapee, stitched in Lightroom & processed in SEP2. Not as much work as it sounds!

Alan, I should try my Helios 85 once with an extension tube!
Hi Michiel, I am assuming you mean to allow closer focus to throw the background out of focus? If so then I think that would be an interesting experiment. Also I am not aware of any recent work (there may be older stuff I have no knowledge of) that you use shallow dof? I would be interested to see your vision of it's use.

Hi Allen, well actually I mean that I can't use this huge lens directly on the K-1 because it just doesn't fit due to the overhanging mirrorbox. I have more M42 lenses which don't fit on the K-1.
A bit of a design failure I think.

In the early years on this forum I did almost nothing else then post bokeh photographs with a zillion different lenses. You can still find them in the early pages of the Micro4/3 department in the bokeh thread.

Examples with the wrong camera :facesmack:



(Another M42 lens which doesn, t fit on the K-1 body.)

I forgot about the pentaprism housing, makes perfect sense. I had not seen the shallow dof work of yours only the later front to back sharp work. I myself always tried for full sharpness in all my landscape work, but over the last few years have been enjoying experimenting with shallow dof.
