I took the K-1 along, though this outing was more of a "get to learn the camera" effort than any serious attempt to get good photos. Here's 4 quick shots: http://www.robertstech.com/temp/k1_test/index.html All from K-1 with FA*28-70/2.8 @ ISO 100 Some observations: Resolution, as expected, is fantastic. Even though the shake reduction seems to be yet another step forward from previous versions, viewing at 100% magnification will reveal any deficiencies in your technique. Viewfinder is splendid. Not as good as, say, my MX but way better than any APS-C camera. Control layout and customization thereof is great. I'm still playing with it to determine what will be my favored setup. The user-programmable presets will be great once I get around to them. I had feared that the smaller top-panel LCD would be inadequate. Nope. It works just fine in conjunction with all the other controls and displays. Having two card slots is great. (Personally, even if the second one were non-functional and served only to hold a spare card I would have been happy.) Running the K-1 native DNG files through Adobe DNG Converter (the latest version supports the K-1) does result in a useful amount of compression and space saving. Nice. Glad I upgraded to a faster computer a couple of months ago. -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
