Don't need it.
The weight.
The cost. Yeah, I know it's a very good price for what it is, but some of us are retired, on limited incomes and have better things to spend out moolah on - food, drink, electricity etc. Mind you, when I get my credit cards completely clear, I MAY get a K-S2 to replace/complement my K-S1. Or possibly a K50, if still available...

Anyone know the reason for this? I assume Pentax chose this configuration for a reason.

... I have kept 9 as well since it has some things 14 seems to have lost, like dodging and burning.
I'm still on PSE-11*, but add on Adobe Raw (free) and it can handle raw too. Obviously.
* I finally upgraded fromv ersion 2 when I moved to W7 - lots of faffing about with virtual memory to get PSE-2 to run. Less wear and tear on the temper to upgrade PSE!

Thing is these days it's all really cheap too. Pentax doesn't do anything in the high quality video/4k realm, so you don't need the fastest sustained transfer cards for Pentax cameras either. My personal feel is that there's not enough to be saved by taking a budget route, given the main players aren't that much more expensive now.
Anyway, I use PNY cards from WHSmith. (convenient and cheaper than PC World) even though PoNY is rhyming slang for, well, you know...
Only ever had trouble with the little (2G) Panasonic card in my Canon A1200.

You don't work for the PA do you?

It's a rather nice result from 'on-board' flash, which after all is supposed to be so harsh and blunt as to be practicality unusable!

I hope you find solace in your craft. Console yourself with the fact that the solicitors will have made a few bob...
Looking forward to some pictures from the Deep South.

In Elements (well, version 11, at least), it's the first option in Adjust Color drop-down list in the Enhance menu.
Thing is, you need an area in the picture that is black, white or mid grey. Click on the wrong bit with the little eye-dropper and you can get some very strange results.

The Pentax DA 12-24 is shorter at 18 than 12 or 24mm.
It all depends upon the type of lenses used and their location within the objective.
