But if you shoot RAW those settings don't effect the actually image so the only reason why you should brother is so the preview on the camera match the actually RAW image better because the camera use the JPG file in the RAW as the preview.Thanks for the replies but I'm ok with the settings you mention...my post was more about K5 specific functions such as highlight clipping/noise reduction etc

I believe the build quality of the DA*16-50 is also better than the Tammy or not?
Sigma also have two options, the 18-55 f/2.8 EX & 17-50 f/2.8 EX

for JPG or RAW, if you only shoot raw your settings for JPG can be set so that they match the unedited RAW image better.

One huge difference between the K10D and K20D cameras that can't be ignored, is the sensor type and size. The K10D has a 10+Mb CCD sensor whilst the K20D enjoys a 14+Mb CMOS sensor.
That was a reason for me for not getting a K20D or K7 but the K5 sensor is a game changer.One huge difference between the K10D and K20D cameras that can't be ignored, is the sensor type and size. The K10D has a 10+Mb CCD sensor whilst the K20D enjoys a 14+Mb CMOS sensor.
I hope pentax will simply release the older firmware unencoded so that everyone can give it a go to make it better.
Pentax might see it as a tool to get new ideas from maybe?

Smeggy makes a good point about avoiding the photography mags though. Too much preponderance on a formulaic 'painting by numbers' approach to photography, and too much emphasis on PP quick fixes. I get the National Geographic and study the photographs for inspiration and insight.
You just need to find the right magazines, fine art magazines often work to inspire or show you something different. NGC is also a good one, i also like the photos but they are almost all reportage photos... surprising enough Smeggy makes a good point about avoiding the photography mags though.

If you like black and white this would be a magazine to your heart.

The problem is large superzooms is they are never going to give you the quality of a smaller shorter zoom so you have to work out what you want to trade off, either having to carry 2 lenses and do lens changes on the fly, choosing a lens that has a good zoom range but not OTT, or getting a superzoom and trading image quality for convieniance :
A 17-70 is surely a good walk about lens, you can do almost everything with that, you're only missing the longer lengths you might want to use with wildlife but for landscapes, architecture, indoor, portraits can all be done with a 17-70.The problem is large superzooms is they are never going to give you the quality of a smaller shorter zoom so you have to work out what you want to trade off, either having to carry 2 lenses and do lens changes on the fly, choosing a lens that has a good zoom range but not OTT, or getting a superzoom and trading image quality for convieniance :
Also these lenses are faster and have a better quality, with a superzoom you will have problems shooting indoors most likely because of the limited light.

Just curious.
You have the Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 & Pentax 35mm F2.4, they seem very close qua specs so how is the image quality and handling. If you need a flexiable option the 24-70 should be able to replace the 35 right?
