    <p>I have a K-5II and have had the opportunity to compare my HD DA Limited's and DF A 100 Macro WR on a friend's K-3II during indoor shooting in an arena. The AF on the K-5II was a big leap from my previous K-100 D Super. The AF with the K-3II was a very noticeable improvement over the K-5II. The Ltd pancakes are blazing fast on a my K-5II so I was quite surprised. As a result I will be searching for Black Friday, Cyber Monday or Boxing Day deals on a K-3II.</p>
  3. <p>And a third...</p><div></div>
  4. <p>Here's the second...</p><div></div>
  5. <p>Great kick off Doug. The lighting on that macro shot is amazing. Here are 3 shots from our local Friday Night Lights exhibition Football games from ages 8-18. I coach kids under 12. It rained heavily on and off. The D FA 100 Macro WR is my only WR lens so that stayed on the camera. Here is the first...</p><div></div>
  6. <p>Last...</p><div></div>
  7. <p>Another...</p><div></div>
  8. <p>Here are 3 from the last week...</p><div></div>

  11. <p>Terrific kick off Justin. The Moonlit Landscape really pops as an image that makes the soul want to be a part of such a peaceful scene. Here are three shots from Football practice this week. All were taken with the D FA 100 Macro WR and K-5II.</p><div></div>
  12. <p>Last but not least...</p><div></div>
  13. <p>A second...</p><div></div>
  14. <p>Great kick off Doug - the Egrets photo is a superb capture. That 150-450 renders extremely well. Love the golden sunset Yury. How fast is the AF on the DA* 300? I have been on the fence about buying that lens for some time.<br> This week I'll stick to black & white to mix it up. Here are three shots...</p> <div></div>
  15. <p>The starbursts on the original DA Limiteds are amazing. I went with the HD DA series for the way they handle flare but can not obtain a starburst remotely close to those Matt has been able to capture with original DA Limiteds. Dynamite shot Matt.</p>
  16. <p>Try this again.</p><div></div>
  17. <p>Last but not least. A cottage sunset.</p>
  18. <p>Here's a second. Peggy's Cove lighthouse a little over a week ago. You could smell the smoke from the forest fires in the Annapolis Valley in Peggy's Cove.</p><div></div>
  19. <p>I haven't posted in a while and just returned from travelling across Atlantic Canada. Here are 3 photos to get the POTW thread started.</p><div></div>
  20. <p>From another angle...</p><div></div>
  21. <p>This is a HDR of an older home on a well kept property in old St. John's...</p><div></div>
  22. <p>Here's the second. A photo of their Grandchildren...</p><div></div>
  23. <p>Terrific kickoff Doug. The slightly out of focus Maple Leaf in the Jay photo is outstanding (being a Canuck I may be biased). Here are two sets of two from me. The first is a portrait I shot of family friends whom were celebrating their 50th Anniversary last weekend...</p><div></div>
  24. <p>Last but not least...a photo of my daughter and my niece... </p><div></div>
  25. <p>Here's a photo of my niece who was visiting from Upper Canada...</p><div></div>
