I dont think film performs better than digital. I think that film and digital are like apples and oranges. Both fruit, but it ends there.

And yes I agree, it looks absolutely amazing with film. Try shooting some landscape with Velvia.

The 16-35 shot is gorgeous, Pablo, but I'm very impressed with the 200/2.8 shots. Those are some of the best samples I've seen from that lens, and I've been looking at a lot recently.

Hmm, I don't see such an adapter offered on the Leitax site. Does anyone else have info on a Pentax K to Sony A mount adapter? I suspect Pentax K to Sony A mount would be a custom job involving the use of an M42 mount adapter for Sony A mated to Pentax K lens after it's mount is removed.

Wow! Great shots. The owls photo is surreal. I almost thought it was a double exposure the rodeo stop action scene is also amazing.
