I've downloaded the pdf manual and started reading it, too many options
to not do so. I tried doing a basic rendering of a recent file. I must
say I do like the rendering.
Controls are a little sluggish on my PC, which isn't the fastest, but
it's pretty well optimized, nothing in DxO optics seems to take as long,
(and my ancient version of Photoshop just flies), but I'm not always
able to get exactly what I want in color and contrast and have to import
the image into Photoshop for watermarking and final adjustments.
Organization is a bit odd. Everything you want to do is in a separate
module. You can't export a file from the darkroom view, but have to
re-enter the light table view. The fact that it doesn't have a menu, as
far as I can tell, doesn't match my workflow.
I guess I could get used to it, and for freeware it's pretty very nicely
done.

Larry, I just checked out the current state of Darktable for Win 64
systems, (since that's what I'm running), If you're running a Mac or
Linux box I'd check the supported camera list, but I can't remember
exactly. The Windows version doesn't support a Pentax body later
than the K-5. So you may still be out of luck. I'll let you know
if it at least opens K-5II files or if they're excluded for reasons...
I just installed darktable, and pointed it at some K-1 DNGs, it seems
to have imported them just fine on OSX.
