Just last weekend, I shot a show with the K10D fixed at ISO 1250 (the edge of usability) and speeds of 1/10-1/40. 1/500 is a shutter speed I've only ever gotten on nice BIG stages. Nice, but unusual/atypical! -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- 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.
