Curiously, we had our friends visit us today. I have exported all the photos from our vacation in 1000 pixels over long side format and ran them through built-in slide show program of my Panasonic 32" TV. They looked rather surprisingly good in terms of visibility of things that I thought made the photos work.
What I would like Pentax-Ricoh to do, is to produce another GXR camera body with built in viewfinder (it is so much more convenient this way) and 16 MP sensor similar to that of K-5, but with output equal to that of current M-module in terms of color separation/quality and tonal gradation (*). It is probably even less likely that what you ask for, Peter. Boris (*) If necessary - limit highest ISO to 3200, I don't care. On 10/11/2013 8:26 AM, P.J. Alling wrote:
I not goo-goo gah-gah over 24mp. Everything in my image processing system is sized for making at most 300dpi 13x19" prints, and even that will severely strain the system. Any processing out of the ordinary with a K20D file, (about 240dpi at that print size), can take a very long time to complete in Photoshop, and those are files that only expand out to about 80meg in memory when being processed. That said if I use a lowish ISO and get the exposure right, so that the file doesn't need a lot of processing and keep in mind the limitations of my particular printer when processing the file, I get really nice printed results. What I'd really like to see is a K-5III with a lot of the improvements that the K-3 has but without the headphone bump and a 16mp image processing train. Oh, yea, you if they could put the SR switch back instead of the movie stuff that would be nice, and an aperture simulator as long as I'm asking for the improbable. That's not to say that I wouldn't like to see a 24mp full frame Pentax K-1 with full K mount support, I just don't really need one at this point in time.
