I was trying to give studio boy a lesson in white balancing today. A bit of background, it seems the people he hangs with (present company excepted) don't know squat about white balance. I had my K10 there, so, using a light setup that had caused me to have kittens while printing his D200 files, I took some JPG test shots, using AWB, Flash (his favourite) and Manual white balances. Interestingly, the Pentax's AWB was just about bang on, the flash was very close, and the manual WB was just a bit farther off. I decided that the Pentax was not a good tool for showing him bad white balancing, so I went to the offending Nikon. What a pile of unmitigated crap. Menus, upon menus, upon inscrutable menus. Auto out of focus in AF, difficult to use, not at all seamless like the K10. And it felt cheap, too. Be glad you use Pentax, the alternatives are just too horrible to contemplate.
