K10D - Wish list?
I agree with Howard. The original image is ever-so-slightly out of focus. Almost there, but not quite. Actually, it's some way out. The part in best focus is the grass and twigs right in the foreground. G

K10D first image to share
Excellent photo Lilly Great clarity, would have been nice to a pic of the whole bird. Also the eye might have been a bit lighter as you can not make out the center of the eye itself also exposure a bit bright on the back of the neck. Pete

K10D first image to share
Good start for your first image Lilly. ...the eye might have been a bit lighter as you can not make out the center of the eye itself also exposure a bit bright on the back of the neck. Pete Pete, I can't seem to find just what knob on the K10D Lilly should turn to make it brighter on the lef...

Saturdays Pic (sums up the weather today in the UK)
The bad weather is not limited to UK. Down here in southern spain we had about 4 inches of rain overnight on Friday. Saturday morning I had to bail out my cellar . . . 2 ft deep in water and mud and clay. Not a pretty sight but luckily nothing damaged. Morning Peter Dont keep tallking about Spain...

An actual (fairly minor) K10D gripe.
Just discovered my first actual gripe with the K10D. The 'rotate' feature available in playback mode, by clicking the 4-way controller 'down', is great. The digital zoom feature is also great. But if you've rotated a shot, digital zooming flips it back up the original way. Also, it seems...

An actual (fairly minor) K10D gripe.
None of which has anything at all, AFAICS, to do with wanting to rotate the image manually on the LCD for viewing convenience after the fact. I still utterly fail to get your point. My camera is set to allow image rotation. If I take the picture in portrait mode, the camera will display it in port...

k10d iso problem?
I don't use TAv myself, but the manual states that if there is not enough light to ensure proper exposure, there will be a warning. The picture you posted was taken at 320 ISO. If you had limited your ISO range to 320 at the top end, and if the camera thought it needed, say, 360, then the warnin...

k10d iso problem?
Is this because of a discrepancy between the manual (relating to firmware v1.00) and the installed firmware v1.10? If so, perhaps it would be a good idea for Pentax to release 'supplimentary pages' for the manual as pdfs, which you could then print off and pop in the back of the manual. Dan

k10d iso problem?
Is this because of a discrepancy between the manual (relating to firmware v1.00) and the installed firmware v1.10? Possibly, but the manual states (p26) "14. ISO Warning" (shows 'ISO' in diagram) (p 141) "ISO (ISO warning) appears in viewfinder when set sensitivity is set or exc...

Full K10D Review in AP
Sure some of you will have spotted this already but the full review is out in AP - my copy landed in my letter box on Sat but I chucked the mag on the back seat of the car on the way out to chase some sunshine in East London (a fruitless task in itself!!!) - I didn't see the contents as the address ...

Full K10D Review in AP
Regarding the issue of the flashgun used in the review, it reflects badly on either (a) AP for not getting hold of a current flash in order to do a thorough review (strangely I'm sure I remember them using a 360 FGZ when they tested the DL2 - maybe they've lost it), or (b) Pentax/Intro for not ensur...

Full K10D Review in AP
I caught up with the review yesterday and I have to say that I found it as bland as the semolina soup that they used to serve up as "pudding" when I was at school :) I had expected this to be THE definitive review of the K10 - full of hard facts about perfomance and relativity to other...

K10D ISO Auto setting
Hi All, Just sat here wondering if I'm being a little slow or missing something completely. Just been trying to take some shots of my Fuji Panoramic that's about to go up for sale on evilbay :twisted: Using available light and a tripod I wanted to lock the ISO at 100 for max image quality as I wo...

Bellows-A & K10D - it fits!
When fitted to my *istD my Bellows-A needs a short spacing extension tube to prevent the camera body fouling the bellows assembly. This additional spacer is not required with the K10D. Well done Pentax, another problem fixed. Now if we could just have TTL flash control back I could use my ring fl...

K10D and CCD SP coating question
Hi Not posted for some time as been away busy but have just caught up with all the latest posts relating to the K10D. I recently bought the K10D to go with my film LX (that I still love and use) and the *istds I bought a while back and was most pleased with, plus my large lens selection (new and...

Where to get my *Ist D (and lenses) Serviced/ Setup
Hi folks Ok for a while now I've noticed that my *ist D has focusing issues in some situations - the camera appears to lock on fine, then when looking at the images afterwards I seem to have lost a bit of sharpness at the point of focus (but have sharpness in other places) I found the Focus te...

Where to get my *Ist D (and lenses) Serviced/ Setup
Just a point or two... From what I've heard the *ist-D was designed to focus at the hyperfocal point automatically... and I've often wondered how it manages to do this as it'd have to know exactly how much to move the focus mechanism for each lens. Of course, all Pentax lenses have a lens-ID w...
