Again part of the plan to spend a bit on the children's portraits (and actually get some photos done), than always spending on gear.

K30; M85/2; Softbox to the top right.

Decided to take a trip to Spotlight, found a suitable brown fabric on sale and used it as a backdrop.
The devil horns from Daiso.

Great shot of your daughter....Somehow can't seem to "like" the photos anymore.

Wonder if needed to put the word "SPECIMEN" for coins?

Another lovely shot... :heart:

Somehow felt your FA77Ltd give better details compare to the M85...

Anyhow, still lovely shots for both.....

Bro, need advise on Pentax Flash system.... not too sure if the upcoming K3 on board flash can trigger wirelessly machiam Nikon CLS..... for Pentax, what is the easiest and not so expensive solution??? For a 2 to max 3 flash setup???

77ltd shot was f5, M85 shot was f2.8 and MF, but 77ltd is a sharp lens indeed.

Pentax flash can be triggered wirelessly via the on-board flash or an external one.
But currently, there is no control and grouping system like CLS.
I don't know about the new K3 and flashes.

However, imo the often untold story for CLS is that you will need Nikon flashes to benefit from CLS.
The SB's are not cheap, so it ends up, only those who are willing to spend on it will actually get it on multiple flashes.
To have a pretty flexible flash setup, you need 3 flash, so 3 SB's = not cheap at all.

Not to mention that studio strobes and strobists have been doing well w/o CLS.

In the end, as I often say, it still boils down to knowing the basics, the equipment we have and practice.

My few cents.

Recent scapes with the K5 and ol' Tamron 10-24mm. I always wonder what UWA I will pick up next. I guess it depends on what's going for a bargain, heh.
