“Testing out the new Pentax K-# HDSLR [ icon wink Pentax K 3 24MP full frame camera announcement on March 27th? WINK WINK… NUDGE NUDGE ] with the Pentax 77mm Limited Prime lens … 1/500s f/11 ISO25600 Custom WB
I love the tones, the dynamic range is amazing, and the resolution (while being too high for my taste) has its advantages when clearing up some noise.
