Like I said earlier, in other cameras, the pixel data is read from the sensor, then passed though a gain stage that will amplify the signal according to the ISO setting, then converted to 12-bit digital, then fed into an image processor that does further work on the data. Or that's how I *think* it works. On the K10D, the data will probably be fed directly from the sensor into a 22-bit A/D, then to a more advanced, 22-bit image processor that also does the ISO adjustment. Only in the far end of that processor is it converted to 12 (or a few more) bits... - Toralf -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
