Dead thread revival. Was just looking through some old archives, and came across some images from my Q, the black Mg original. I think I used one of the zoom lenses to get this one.
Adding this for posterity...
Back in 2017, I rode a motorcycle from NJ to Tennessee for a motorcycle rally and then out to Idaho for a story on The Great American Eclipse. My goal was to capture a photo of the total eclipse for the story but I could not take a lot of gear because of the bike. In addition to the Lumix kit I generally traveled with (two GX85s + lenses), I added a Pentax Q with a kit lens plus the DA 55-300 on a K to Q adapter.
Of the 13 photos used to illustrate the published story, 5 were taken with the Q7.

I don't travel with the Q system as much as I used to, but it delivered the goods when I needed it to.
