Having used the K10D for about two weeks (The photographes I took almost paid for camera by now :-), I have started to actually read the instructions :-) This is simply brilliant camera. If I use it every day (which I shall), I will probably learn it all shortly :-)
I especially find the options for manualy setting the White Balance by eye sight (looking at the last taken picture or by white card) or by choosing Kelvin (degrees) very usefull and well thought out (although it's a little hard to remeber how many times I must push which buton). (The *ist D had a button for manual WB setting, which was nice, but it is a PITA that I must turn the dial to Tv or whatever in order to do the actaul test shot. The K10D lets me just push release button right away. Very neat! I also think that the USER fuction, that enables me to save my current set-up (for the next time I'm doing something similar - or as a universal mode, is just brilliant. I also discovered the the HYP-program (which I always liked a lot (originally invented for the PZ1) is still there - it's the "P" mode. And also the two variable ISO-modes (TAv and Sv modes) are nice inventions. All I miss is TTL-flash, a PC-sync connection and ISO 3200. And perhaps an aperture simulator :-) Regards Jens Bladt -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
