Thanks, Jeffrey. It's getting to the point where I need to stop asking questions and just try it.

If I'm shooting raw, what will the images on the lcd screen tell me about the quality of my images? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA [email protected] -- 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.
