Hmm, as far as I can tell from the specs, it will display RAW files upto the resolution supplied in the embedded JPG. So that would be a fulll-screen display on the Flash Trax (or Epson P2000) It will only display TIFF and perhaps other formats as thumbnails though. Of course you can't zoom in to the actual 3000x2000 real pixels like you could with real JPG shooting to see absolute sharpness at that level ... For Pentax PEF that is 640x480 I think, which is much better to judge sharpness than the *istD tiny screen. Hopefully the next generation (*istD mkII) offers dual RAW and JPG in full resolution :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jan van Wijk; http://www.dfsee.com/gallery
