Paul. I am hoping between my own learning curve and tapping the collective at
GFM on how
to go about
this PS Browser, Raw batch proccessing will eventually come to me. Right now i
have 100
Raws to
proccess and get out with some effects by the 28th, i can't really spend time
experimenting. I wil
before someon gives me shit for that.:-)
I think you said your coming to GFM.
Mind if i tap the collective when you get there. Bringing ibook and CS
Dave
PS. I love the two wheel shutter/aperature feature not only on the D but the D1
and D2H.
I think i would be hard pressed with out. That and Hyper M / P
Give the D a face lift with faster buffer and say 8mp and Pentax will have a
good seller i
think.

Yes. The digital workflow isn't a problem once you get used to it. I shoot
events now as favors for friends that I never would have done with film. I shot
a baby shower the other day. Processed 20 of the 50 RAWs I shot in about 20
minutes. Spent another ten minutes putting them up on a web page for all to
see. No brainer. I have two *ist D. Haven't tried the other D cameras, but I
love the individual wheels for aperture and shutter speed. Wouldn't want to
change now.
