Will lenses such as the Pentax 80-320mm (which according to reports I have read is slightly soft at the 200-320mm range) be improved with the advent of the forthcoming Pentax digital SLR?
Digital cameras in general allow you to alter the sharpness, contrast and saturation settings, and numerous imaging programs allow one to adjust barrel and pincushion distortion. It is also my understanding that a lens that is not sharp at the edges would be improved on a digital camera due to the size of the ccd sensor. My reason for asking this question is that I have the opportunity to buy a Pentax 80-320mm at a reasonable price and whilst it would be a reasonable consumer lens on a SLR could in theory be improved by tweaking controls on a digital camera. Does this make sense or am I barking up the wrong tree! Harry -- Harold Owen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
