The sun warmed things up a bit this afternoon so Grace and I went to
the park. I shot a number of action pics. The K-5 seemed to be able to
lock in good focus on 7 to 8 tries out of 10. That's considerably
better than the K-7, which was somewhat better than the K20D. It
didn't nail every shot perfectly -- some included pretty violent
motion right at the camera -- but it never left me in the lurch. It
always locked in. Results for spot and continuous were similar.
Perhaps a slightly higher percentage of misses with continuous. But
operator error comes into play here as well, and the sample is still
relatively small. But I'm pleased.
The first eight pics in this folder are from today. All are action,
except the one of Grace sitting on the rail. A noteworthy
achievement: she tried to sled down the astroturf hill standing up.
First time. Almost made it.
