So Far, Pretty Awesome.

I am definitely enjoying the Pentax. It's fairly versatile, and has an insane iso range. Lots of little features making adjusting for different environments easy as well. The image stabilization is a plus too, but cuts out during longer exposures, which is to be expected anyway. The only gripe I have is the time it takes to process the image after a long bulb exposure, but I am also shooting as large as I can without going raw. Look below for a few examples of my first day out shooting with it. The night shots are especially nice, with some surprisingly rich color showing up in the longer exposures due to the sky saturating for almost a whole minute on f4.5 and 400iso.
