Re: And now: the *ist D vs. the EOS 300D!

If you recall there was a lot of speculation that the delay in release was do to 
software problems. It seems like they got most of the bugs, but it still needs a 
bit of optimizaion. However, since that is a field upgradable area, it will be 
just a matter of time before the new firmware is available.

Also, many thanks to Ruediger Neumann for the link to the German page

At the end, the main problem with image quality of the *ist D truly looks to
be the bad RAW-JPEG conversion done by the Pentax software. If you do a good
conversion, the pictures have nothing to envy to Canon's SLR's (and surpass
them well at higher ISO settings).

Now this is v-e-r-y interesting. 

Pentax is shooting itself in its own foot with its software.
