Read the information on how sensitivity is calibrated that was posted to you on DPReview.com. And remember that the settings will always be rounded to suit sensible, familiar numeric values, just like focal lengths are. The difference between ISO 76 and ISO 80 is insignificant, photographically. G -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
