Customer Review

Madeira in January 2014. It is raining in Strömen and permanently. Fog draws from the sea to the hotel up (500 m. Ã'ber the sea) and a hÃ'llt everything. A couple of bored tourists are smoking in front of the hotel and wait for better weather. And I crawl with the Pentax K50 together with WR Lens 18-135 mm between the Außenmobiliar around and take pictures falling drops of water, which unregelmÃ'ßig of a table edge solve.

So is taking pictures with this camera. Easy. Effective. With an incredible number of individual possibilities.

The above story is true tatsÃ'chlich, the image for that I have uploaded.

What should I write largely Ã'ber the ArbeitsgerÃ't: It is built ergonomically, is hard and good and tired in his hand. The included instructions in German (tatsÃ'chlich !!! There is an instruction manual on paper.) Is helpful to look up, but when taking pictures with the camera and trying really helps only one thing: taking pictures. Snapping. Snapping. In all situations. In any weather. For all occasions. By day and night.

Then the camera is to stÃ'ndigen companion, service erklÃ'rt like the keys of a typewriter, and the printed manual has only security Character: What do I do if .... I will not weiterweiß?

Conclusion: the Pentax K 50 together Lens WR 18-135 was after a long Ãœberlegen the best purchasing decision for years. The zoom is very fast and very, very quiet. In addition, I have two other lenses of an analogue Pentax camera that I have long no longer used, because I believed I mÃ'sste now on digital miniature cameras change. The Pentax lenses fit! And since the Antiverwacklungs mechanism is in the camera, and not in the lenses installed, it is fully effective even with the old lenses.

My all-weather favorite camera! If the other their equipment hidden under the jacket, I grab my camera only really. There's a lot of fun to play with the Pentax to experiment. Backlit subjects of germinating FrÃ'hlingsknospen are with me exactly a hit! What fÃ'r Farbspiele makes the camera possible (with my old 70-210 mm zoom) - just terrific!

So quiet the objective WR works 18-135:
Last night, nature scenes on the edge of a corn field, the plants look 5-10 cm from the field. I stand still and photographing beautiful cloud formations. A hare comes prospective patched. Stands still. Focus on him, zoom, abdrÃ'cken. The spoon rotate in all directions. He hobbles a few meters away. I knipse repeatedly. The hare is always nÃ'her, remains ultimately fÃ'nf meters in front of me. Hearken, looks. Series images. Terrific. I hardly dare to breathe. Slowly he hobbles away, sniffing the fresh corn plants, then he's gone.
Either the hare was deaf, or him GerÃ'usch the Pentax K has 50 together with lens really not bothered. Anyway, he fÃ'hlte not attacked ...

Supplement 02 September 2014

I love this rainy and traversed by WassergÃ'ssen summer! Rarely, I managed to photograph so great WasserpfÃ'tzen, jump in which the incident from the lashing rain water drops wild through the area! Continuous shooting, ISO 800-1600, shutter between 1 / 60-1 / 500 seconds. Okay, after I'm pretty wet, best suited to flip-flops! And the FußgÃ'nger (if any are traveling) look stupid on my Pentax K 50. But do not mind. And if I erklÃ're, the camera including WR lens is waterproof, look even more: What? So there is something too? They know only Canon and Nikon.
Or even as a motive: Ãœberquellende Waterbarrels! Small BÃ'che, which ergießen from BlÃ'ttern, shimmering water droplets on dÃ'nnen a "first that there as small packages hÃ'ngen ... until the wind herunterblÃ'st.

Addendum, 11/10/2014

Have uploaded some current pictures under the objective WR 15-135 mm. None of the images was nachtrÃ'glich edited or colored. All photos were taken free hand without a tripod, despite shutter speed of 1/4 second occasion. A steady hand and the built-in camera anti-shake effect. Otherwise: the possibilities, take moods in nature, can with this camera are given excellent again. But you have to have a look dafÃ'r. Sometimes the images in the different recording modes act (Landscape, Macro and forest are used Ã'berwiegend) highly differentiated. Sometimes I use intentionally to another, non-matching program and let me Ã'berraschen what happens. Then play even with the visor ...
