Pentax-K20D-1-500-f-4-ISO-400-The-Pentax-K20D
1/500 @ f/4 ISO 400: The Pentax K20D did a nice job of evaluative metering for the range in this scene.
Pentax-K20D-1-50-f-4.5-ISO-400-We-had-to-sligh
1/50 @ f/4.5 ISO 400: We had to slightly warm up the tones on this shaded street scene.
Pentax-K20D-1-80-f-4.5-ISO-400-We-exposure-loc
1/80 @ f/4.5 ISO 400: We exposure-locked on the window display and recomposed for our chosen angle, s that the main area would be properly exposed, while the bright sunlit edge and background get blown out a little in this high-contrast scene.
Pentax-K20D-1-320-f-4.5-ISO-400-The-Pentax-K20
1/320 @ f/4.5 ISO 400: The Pentax K20D did a nice job of keeping detail throughout the tonal range in this fisheye scene.
Pentax-K20D-1-250-f-4.5-ISO-100-We-had-to-warm
1/250 @ f/4.5 ISO 100: We had to warm up the color in this shaded ice rink shot to neutralize a cool blue cast.
Pentax-K20D-1-160-f-4.5-ISO-100-Again-we-need
1/160 @ f/4.5 ISO 100: Again, we needed to warm up this shot a little to minimize the bluishness of the ice in the shaded foreground.
Pentax-K20D-1-640-f-8-ISO-200-There-s-great-de
1/640 @ f/8 ISO 200: There’s great detail in this low ISO scene of Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.
Pentax-K20D-1-15-f-4-ISO-200.-Yes-that-s-1-15
1/15 @ f/4 ISO 200. Yes, that’s 1/15 of a second, handheld, courtesy the sensor-shift stabilization. Notice the great shadow details.
