Since posting the same message over at dpreview I learned that expanded
dynamic range only works with jpegs. See here:

I have had my K20D set to edr. But I shoot only RAW, so I guess I will
change it back. All this
If anyone is interested, I just had the following exchange with Pentax
USA concerning metering for Expanded Dynamic Range on the K20D. My
original question is at the bottom.
Given this answer, for EDR to work the camera must somehow anticipate
how the histogram will distribute even before
, but I'm pleased with the results.

I think EDR just gives you a bit more room on each end of the
histogram. It will record slightly more shadow detail and slightly

I think EDR just gives you a bit more room on each end of the
histogram. It will record slightly more shadow detail and slightly
more highlight detail. Accurate metering is obviously an advantage
regardless of the dynamic range. I use EDR all the time. I haven't
done any real comparisons,
Hmmm. This dpreview article was written for the K200D, and it's from
a dubious source. I may attempt a little test. The dynamic range of
my K20D with EDR turned on appears to be better than that of the K10D
in RAW shooting, but that my be due to the different sensor.
