However, it's worth mentioning that the Premium JPEGs produced by the camera are superb and I don't normally shoot anything else. This is not always true and some other manufacturers don't manage to produce JPEGs anywhere near as well as Pentax do. In the worst case I have found they were unusable.
Thanks,
Jon

I shoot JPG+RAW but use the JPG where possible and if at home
I send it to the PC via Eye-Fi to check exposure WB etc.

without any bokeh. It's more like a field/view camera shot
using f/64 or a tilted lens.

Having finished the Yamaha I now have this to play with...
It's a Mobylette, 1965 vintage and younger than most of my cameras...
Happy Bithday Gwyn!

Obviously we don't hear the 'Doom and Gloom' Merchants
mentioning that the exchange rate Yen/Pound has gone up
by 26% in the last year meaning that Japanese Companies
receive an EXTRA 26% for everything they sell in the UK

I always use manual at other times based on what the
THREE Histograms show.... more accurate than just the
white histogram. I usually take a test shot to make sure
the highlights aren't clipped.

do with Pentax Apart from it being doom and gloom
which is always of interest to this forum I don't see
any reason for it to be posted here
10-15% fall if true isn't the end of the world and mostly
effects Canon and Nikon. SLR manufacturers make most of their
money from lenses. Phone manufacturers make 0% from lenses.

everything through 360° and then put it back on the ground
It does sound odd if it's unscrewing though. It sounds like
the 360° rotation yoke is too stiff and it's unscrewing off
the triopod bush..... in which case try to screw it on
tighter. It's not normal to be able to lubricate/repair the
360° rotation yoke
