<p>I have not used this but, intrigued, I Googled it and came up with a couple of reviews on Amazon. Not great. Then I looked up wi-fi card for camera and the Eye-fi card came up. It works with the K-3 , as well as older models. Also reviews not all great but the newer models seem to do better. As for battery life for 4 hours, you might want to plug the camera into the wall with an AC adapter. Wi-fi strength is very variable with each network so you might want to try one out at the location. It looks like you can control camera from smartphone. Hopefully you'll get more responses with more specific info.</p>

<p>Haig - The first two mountain shots look like there's a very tiny bit of haze, but you really have to look hard.</p>

<p>Hello all, I haven't been posting much because we got a new computer upstate and I haven't install photo software on it, so it's midweek by the time I can post and it seems late. like tonight.<br> Duane I like shot # 2, Rick, I like the door best (and the shadows on the stairs at the bottom of my page). Yury I like #s 1 & 3. Matt, my legs go weak when I think of how high that tower is and the stairs required to get there. <br /> <br />Thre from last month. All K-5 and 55-300mm.<br /> <br />One:</p><div></div>

<p>I'm thinking of going to a store and getting the "in-store price". This should not be necessary for a $1400 or even $800 lens.</p>

<p>I have a 90mm Tamron 2.8 (not particularly fast AF) and a Rokinon 85mm 1.4 manual focus (not a great feel) and a I wanted a zoom for composition. Very disappointing. It's considerable weight forced me to hold the lens and camera properly. and up close there was good bokeh but not farher away.<br> I don't understand all the rave reviews.</p>

<p>So, I bit the bullet, pulled the trigger and ordered the 50-135mm f/2.8 SDM lens. Thought it would be just the thing for portraits. Tried it out for a few days and was disappointed. I tend to take my portraits outdoors in daylight or shade. All gf a sudden, my exposures were all over the place - overexposed, underexposed by several stops. Bokeh was not much better at 2.8 than my 55-300 @4.5. And the AF lag was weird. It was definitely quieter than the normal drive - couldn't hear it (maybe that made the lag weirder). Paying full price (ordered on the web) didn't help. Could have gotten mucho $$$ off by getting the in-store price. So maybe I'll use my Pentax 50mm-M f/2 on my K-5.</p>
