Hope folk don't mind a chip in on this thread: Just to ask a question on ink costs here; why is the ink for the ip4500 cheaper? is it 'cos cartridge size has been reduced in the 4600?
Thanks
Andy

Can't vouch for any other lenses mentioned above but I have the 17-70 DA lens and am really pleased with it - although have been getting some AF hunting, but that might be the camera. It stays on the camera (K10D) most of the time. Have used it to produce a panoramic print approx 50 cm wide from the one 'frame' and the detail is incredible

Congrats Simon - lovely shot!

Agree with John (Riley) that in some sense it doesn't matter, but my way of thinking with the K10D is to use Av and control aperture with rear dial, with front dial set to ISO changes. This way I can choose something relating to the DOF I want and yet relatively easily get a fast enough shutter speed that helps reduce camera shake effects by upping the ISO (within reason also trying to keep noise levels down!)

However, a slightly noisy but sharp shot is better than a 'clean' blurred one

There is some stuff about this on DPreview - the line shows up after doing some video, so seems to be linked to a temperature problem
