- Battery life per charge: around 1000 frames. - Don't be scared by RAW. Set the camera to the DNG format, get yourself a copy of Adobe Lightroom (the v4.1 Beta is still available from http://labs.adobe.com, the v1.0 release with LOTs more features and improved capabilities ships in 15 days and will sell for $199 ... WELL worth it IMO ...). Have fun ... same tools to edit as with JPEGs but much better quality.
The K10D is a great camera. have fun Godfrey On Feb 3, 2007, at 2:16 PM, Paul Stenquist wrote: > Don't be afraid of RAW. It will expand your horizons significantly. > But do get a good RAW converter.
