It's a gorgeous picture, but I do wonder about a couple bits of the EXIF, particularly SR Result : Stabilized Shake Reduction : Unknown (15) SR Half Press Time : 4.25 s or longer SR Focal Length : 196 mm That would seem to indicate that SR was on, that the lens is unknown to the firmware, and that the actual focal length is less than 200mm despite the lens being set at 250mm. (Which I understand is a plausible result of distance-to-subject in some designs.) I would be curious as to anyone else's interpretation of that EXIF information. -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
