The Warehouse

This is the warehouse where I work as we were shutting down for the night.  I just really like how this photo framed itself and the way everything in the image is squareish.

The New Camera

Here are a few shots out of my new camera.

A few notes:
1) I really like this lens. All of these photos were taken in less-than-ideal lighting conditions, so the 1.4 aperture combined with the camera's shake reduction made for some great shots.

2) I'm going to really like using this camera.  I can tell already. The fact that it's compatible with all of my other lenses and gear is just icing on the cake. Once I master a few of the bells and whistles, my results will improve.

3) The new camera is a Pentax K-3II. The only complaint I have is that it lacks a flash. Pentax opted to add a GPS to it instead. Which is ... cool. I guess. If a bit weird.

I Gave My Camera Away

I've been awfully quiet here, lately. It's because it's been a while since I broke my camera out.

Sorry.

I ordered a Pentax K-3II this week. It's compatible with all of the same lenses as my K10D was. But it also has a few features that I look forward to fighting with.

The K10D found a good home - one of my co-workers is one of those Outdoors types, and he was bored with his point-and-shoot.  So I gave it to him, along with two lenses.

Since I last posted I've ... not taken many pictures, actually.

Or, more accurately, I've not processed many photos.

And I've definitely failed to share a bunch here. I promised a friend this summer that I would work on that. And now I'm promising you that I'll be working on that.

The Lytro has had a good workout with board games. I's share them, but Lytro's gallery page seems to be down at the moment. I liked it enough that when the Illum dropped to under $500, I snagged one of those, too.

I won't have weekly posts, or a regular schedule, but I do intend to post more here. Because I definitely plan to put my cameras through their paces.
