straining the "motor" on the k10d
This is intersting because . . . I don't believe that DSLR's actually have a shutter. Not a mechanical one anyway. Mirror movement yes, shutter, I don't think so. Surely the 'shutter' function is purely electronic sampling of the sensor. There is certainly nothing like the normal film type leadin...

straining the "motor" on the k10d
I'm not sure that's right though. The K10D has an interline/interlace scan CCD and this refers to how the information is removed from the sensor a line at a time. Very very quickly of course! The exposure time is certainly via the shutter and the CCD receives its light all in one go - the informa...

straining the "motor" on the k10d
I forget exactly where I read it, Strobist perhaps? but I thought I read that many current cameras have an electronic shutter that usually maxes out at about 1/125sec or something, (perhaps sync speed?), and any higher shutter speed is obtained by sampling the sensor. Anyway, is it possible that ...

Poppy about to burst !
Thanks Lilliy, as I said in the first post, these poppies are addictive :lol: By all means have another go. Since they are in your garden you have the opportunity to shoot at different lighting conditions, which should be interesting. Not sure that I share your judgement on the appeal of the ...

K100 and K10 sensor coating ?
I think the the K10 has some anti static coating as well as the shaker. Does the K100 also have that surface ? Does it make any differance ? Will the coming K100 upgrade have it ? thanks for any answers Guys :) Pete

K100 and K10 sensor coating ?
It is a fluorine non-stick type coating similar to what you find on non-stick pans. It is on the K10D's and K100D Super's sensors but not on the K100D.

K100 and K10 sensor coating ?
Isn’t there also a tin-oxide coating, which also means that you have to use a different version of the Eclipse fluid if you intend to wet clean the sensor.

How accurate is your k10's exposure system?
Just to add to the melting pot... One thing that's often overlooked when discussing exposure errors is the white balance setting. A variation in WB can skew the histograms all over the place and affect the judgment of exposure. There is also the question in my mind as to the spectrum sensitivi...

K100D or K100D Super
Hello, I am about to be new to the digital slr world. I do however have a pentax film slr so understand the workings of an slr, though it has been a while since I have had a good play with it. Anyay, I will be getting a K100D shortly, as after reading reviews and doing my research I have fo...

Iris closes even when aperture is set fully open, why?
I love my 50mm 1.4, with that large glass opening you can see clearly all the way to the sensor as you take a photo (of your face :) ). Generally, the iris is fully open to allow for metering and focus. When the picture is being taken the iris closes. Of course at f/1.4 the iris really doesn't mo...

What I would Like
In the next generation, I would like a couple of things that are not available on the K10D. I want a Flash Synchro-X input, so I don't need to put an adapter in the Hot Shoe. I would also appreciate a CF card slot as well as the existing SD slot. I would also like a 12.8 megapixel sensor that c...

What I would Like
There is much speculation about an 18mp ful frame Sony sensor coming in the Autumn. It must surely might make its way into a Pentax at some point. The price might not be right though - and this might steal 645D sales (if this camera is ever produced).
