I carry the Domke F-803, (think that's the number), everywhere--and I mean everywhere, everyday. But still, when you're busy with work, it's hard to get the camera out when you see stuff in route, but I'm working at getting better at it--getting to the point where it just is seamless and so natural--like seeing and breathing. I actually want to get one of those more designer looking bags about the size of the F-803 for when I'm dressed up a bit when going to more up-do events. With the K-5 and a prime, it's sooooo easy to take the camera everywhere. Gosh, I love this camera. I think it's going to go down in history as one of the great *digital* cameras.
I'm reallllly missing my FA 50mm prime. I did a shoot yesterday for a play rehearsal at work, & I would have loved to have this prime. I used the DA 16-45mm zoom, worked good, but it might have been back focusing at times, but I got 25 shots for the director--black and whites, down and dirty--nothing fancy. I had to use the Auto button in Lightroom & it looks like most of them were about a half to a full stop off in exposure, but they cleaned up nicely. Shot at +1600 ISO, no problem with noise--just a nudge of noise reduction in Lightroom--Gosh, I love this camera. Thanks, Larry.
