The Pentax K1 Thread! - Post all your K1 picts and impressions


Have not been shooting birds for months, was invited by friend to shoot this migratory bird today.
I've shot this bird in the past with K5/K5-IIs and K3, this is the first time using K1 + Sigma 500 F4.5 to shoot. I must say I'm happy with the shots compared to my previous ones taken by cropped body, iso 800 on K1 is like iso 100 on K3/K5 series. :)

Ken,
Love your Birds photography.

I often woder how close you were to the birds.

Such clarity and sharpness. :thumbsup:

For this bird is less than 10m, maybe 7-8m away.

Hi Ken,

Good work. I like the lighting. :thumbsup:

Jk started a thread for pictures shot using the Pixel Shift function.

Can you post a full file size of this picture there of this shot.

Thanks bro, my pics in flickr are usually only 1024 pixels wide, no bigger size (as I might be selling them). Yes saw the pixel shift thread, just posted a question there.
