New Year, New Camera Body, New Resolutions (pun intended)


I watched and waited patiently as this camera body sat at KEH while I waited for a sale. The sale arrived the day after Christmas (Boxing Day in some locations). This is a Pentax K5 body, factory refurbished. I took a test shot upon its arrival on December 31, 2014, and viewed the EXIF in PhotoMe. The shutter count was 187. Mounted on the body is a Sigma-A 90mm f2.8 macro lens and Quarry Master 2X Teleconverter, which I was testing. The lens and TC were part of a lot of used gear I purchased last year from a local photographer. I imaged this scene with my Pentax K20D and Manual Focus Tamron Adaptall-2 Model 27A SP 28-80mm f3.5-4.2 CF Macro Lens with attached Tamron Adaptall-2 Pentax KA Mount, hand held, manually focused, Shake Reduction set to 70mm, ISO 400, f22, 1/180 sec, with fill-in flash from camera's built-in electronic flash. This is a full-resolution Large JPEG and is Straight Out Of Camera (SOOC) without any editing, post-processing, adjusting, cropping, or re-sizing.
