Ok, seems i may have been to quick's on the draw here. I usually open
my files in Preview to quickly look at them and see what i have, which
is what i did with my plowing match photos, and my Model A shots etc.
In Preview everything looked way under expose. Having just loaded the
file into LR ver 4
Is there a non-Flash version anywhere?

A sluggish aperture would probably cause over exposure, as the lens
wouldn't be fully closed down when the shutter opened.
I have noticed that the K-5II, (and all earlier models of Pentax DSLR
I've owned), grossly underexposed when using the green button on pre A
lenses in dim light. Long len
When using a tripod, I've learned to bridge a fairly weighty bean bag

For Dave Re: 55-300 & the lenses that are under exposing on the K-5.
I am using the 55-300 WR lens on a K-5 IIs and find it pretty sharp at
the 300mm end. Yep, the problem is the huge length of the Lens barrel
at 300mm. Sure enough the overhang contributes to unsteadiness and
shake.

Now I almost believe in mental telepathy! However, I thought I would check

I am not on the market for these lenses at the moment. But if I were, I'd
be torn. My current "most universal" lens (i.e. the one that is attached
by default) on K5-IIs is 17-70, which provides the FOV similar to the
full-frame camera with 25-105.
And I am using the wide end much more often

You probably know this, but just in case:
If you are using a matrix or even center-weighted, and you have lots of
