I printed an image with no manipulation at all,
What were the in camera settings?
I been operating under the "rule" that all digitally captured images need
sharpening.

Shel - the skin tones do look a little red to me, on my admittedly
uncalibrated monitor.
I wonder whether this is a feature of the in-camera Pentax processing: as
an experiment yesterday, I printed an image with no manipulation at all,
mainly as a test of the constantly repeated assertion that Pentax images
are not sharp (see last week's Amateur Photographer review of the Samsung
version of the DL2). What I found was that, on an A4 sized print, the
image is not unsharp, but it isn't bitingly sharp, which I would expect to
be the normal standard for me once I've done my basic processing in PSCS,
and the skin tones were definitely biased towards the red.
Set up was *ist-D, Pentax 28-105 PZ at 40mm., in a shaded area with
brilliant morning sunlight at about 11:00 a.m., 1/150 @ f8.
OK, it was my wife holding the camera but she's normally a pretty good
tripod!
Anyone else done the same experiment?

Taken at today's visit to the Legend of the Motorcycle charity event in
Half Moon Bay, California.
Jeff is my friend Sonia's son, and he was clowning around for the camera.
I'm curious how you think the skin tones look.
Motorcycle pics coming a little later.
