B&W Again again
I have to say an evening out, using this combo, did make me get a twitchy finger on the SRS website when I looked at the FA 50mm f/1.4. Should I...?

I'm feeling exactly the same, just can't really work as well with the lack of autofocus. I'm sorely tempted but there is going to be an DA* 55mm F1.4 SDM, unfortunately no clue when. Secondly I really want some sharper and faster zooms so the DA*s are calling to me and saying don't get anything else. I've just got my K10D and have already doubles by list of lenses to get for it.

LBA is good for you, a Lens a day helps you work, rest and play.

quite low noise for iso800 too, how did you process it?

Just used Capture One, default noise reduction. To be honest though, the small size here helps hide a lot!
Sorry, that should have been "The K10D is superb at keeping noise down..." It's good, but if we were seeing noise on an image this size, imagine what it would be like as an A4 print.

I prefer the first one, and if it wasn't for you and your nit-picking, I'd have never started messing around with it!
Interesting though, as I know you're 'supposed' to use sRGB for the web, but I've always been happy with the way my pics have shown in AdobeRGB. Is there a vast difference between OS's and browsers? I'm using XP and ie7.

Yup. Windoze doesn't do colour management
IE7, Firefox etc etc under Windows will always assume it's sRGB - even if there's a profile embedded.
The Mac is another thing
Hence, best to convert to sRGB and then use Save For Web within Photoshop

(For gallery, tips and links)
maybe theres a way of turning on profiling somewhere..
Got to get that lens, you are all going on about anyone know how much it will be?
To be honest I can't see much difference between te 2 shots, may be the first one is a little darker??? Can anyone explain what the difference sd be?

K10D, SMC-A 50mm f/1.7, 1/60s @ F/2, ISO800.
Don't do much in the way of portraits, but I have to say an evening out, using this combo, did make me get a twitchy finger on the SRS website when I looked at the FA 50mm f/1.4. Should I...?
