Two SD slots would amake better sense if the second one took over once the first was full, doubling the number of shots that could be recorded. With memory card density increasing at least as fast as sensor density, wouldn't this be a bit superfluous too? Building space into the body for two cards,...

[quote]There is much speculation about an 18mp full frame Sony sensor coming in the Autumn. It must surely might make its way into a Pentax at some point. I would think that this would only make sense if the new lenses support full frame. Could this be the reason for the delay?

The more you cram photo sites into small sensors, the more you pick up lens distortions and the harder the sensors have to work (which increases noise). I would prefer a larger sensor but I don't expect it will happen - at least not at this price level. A 4GB SD card gives me around 280 shots in ...

What's being discussed here is something that was initially raised in Phil Askleys infamous review where he apparently identified a 'flaw' in the way the K10D processes it's JPEGs - something specific to black edge sharpness that cannot be corrected for by adjusting the in camera processing paramet...

From the rumour-mill: http://www.photozone.de/active/forum/ShowMessage?ID=108615421463974872146397486A So, I believe the "roadmap" is as follows... K1D - PMA show 2008 announcement, on the market September 2008. 12 - 16Mp APS-C sensor (no, it is not a Sony!). 4fps. 1/8000 shutter,...

How can a lens be responsible for contrast without definition, or vice versa? Modulation Transfer Function summarises the lens performace and the objective is for a pattern with say 100% contrast to have 100% contrast on the CCD. In practice this is not possible and certain optical defects compromis...

RAW of PEF?
I use ACR to process my .dng files from my Samsung GX10 and I am quite happy with the results that I get. I used silkypix briefly to process the files from another camera that I owned but found it very slow. The main advantage was in the handling of noise which is now less of an issue for me. The .d...

You don't need to worry too much which one you choose as the 1.5x crop factor brings all these lenses into the mix for consideration. Even the digital lenses have the crop factor? I figured if they produce a lens for a digital body they would just make it compatible with the sensor size?

yes the sensor is smaller than the actual 24x36mm frame so this means that they are only using a portion of coverage of the actual lens? but there are full frame dslrs with no crop factor though as well. so therefore a bigger sensor in say the k10 would be more money or something? basically they...

Only a portion of the coverage of a lens that is designed for 35mm cameras is used. A lens designed purely for the smaller sensor uses its entire covergae and is u...

Loads more money. That's the reason we have smaller sensors. The cheapest camera with a 24x36 sensor costs over £4,000. Compare that to a K10D.G just being picky, but an eos 5D is about £1500 and is full frame. Whether i'ts any better is another matter.

I'd be inclined to put it on ebay as a K100D body just fetched around £200. So if you are in no hurry that would be a better option. Failing that I will give you £120 for it.
