I've been a little under the weather for the last couple of weeks so when I got out today I was shooting everything whether it moved or not. I like the camera/lens combo. I find I need the Image Stabilization with the long lenses. I can't use a tripod. Thanks for looking and for you kind comments. I don't know if you bought that new camera yet but I use my Pentax screw mount lenses on my two Canon bodies. Works like a champ. And the adapter is very inexpensive.
