Yes it was the zoom experience.
Wasn't planning to go either but since some of the forum went I thought it might be gezellig (fun) to go.

We went to Joe McNally at Nikon, that was certainly worth the visit.

Yeah i also hope they will improve, they told me they already gave Pro priority so if something needs to get fixed just say you're a Pro and you might get it back earlier

No sorry we didn't had time for Trajectum Lumen and I actually wanted to get home soon as well.
The whole day walking at the fair was more then enough for me.

Surprisingly enough Pentax had a little stand on a photography fair I went with some members of the Dutch Pentaxforum yesterday.
Got Pentax t-shirt now

We talked a bit there and played with the cameras.
The 645D was surprisingly light and easy to control, The K10D with the DA*50-135 seemed to weight more.
The image quality is amazing as you all know. Made a shot and was looking at the photo only to surprisingly discover it was shot at ISO1000 because it looked very good, i really want one now but no idea where to get th money from

Got some news that there is a major update coming for the 645D for SDXC support and to improve the speed to make it better for studio work, and with the tethering shooting program to finish it.
He also said that the tethering shooting also might work with the K5 so fingers crossed for that.

For the rest little news that concerns non Dutch users.
The Beukelaar have said to upgrade their services and offer professional service to go in line with the professional products Pentax is offering, so it seems they will be getting things like 24 hour return times or loan camera's. Lets hope they have that service up soon.
No student programs yet though but I might apply for the professional service when i study.

RAW is truly RAW data so programs can interpreted differently than another program does, you can even see difference if you compare programs renders directly.
I'm sure you will be able to see a difference between in-camera and software as well.

Nope, Copyright is worldwide and has nothing to do with borders. If you want to work for any agency....Dutch, British, German, American or any other they all have the same statue you are have to obey with.
If copyright would be bound to a specific country I could do with your pictures what I want as I am not in the Netherlands.
That wasn't what I meant though.
Like you said Every country has slightly different copyright laws.

From what I understand from reading the Berne Convention act, the copyright of the country the artist is citizen from is initially applied.
So my photos even if i take them in French have the Dutch copyright applied not the French copyright.
Then you've also some other rules like if you work for a company and they send you to take photos then the company owns the copyright and so the country of the company decides which copyright law is applied.
I can't remember what happen if you publish your photos in another country, i believe they will then have that countries copyright but ain't sure.

here if you want to read it link
Article 5 is what possibly what i mean.
on, the country of origin shall be that country.

It warps out the lens distortion, simliar to what lens correction software does on the computer, DxO for example link link

Too look at an extreme example, look at the second fisheye photo in the last link of the photo in side a camera store.
The glass cabinet on the right side gets 2 times as long, so it has increased in the amount of pixels but not in quality/detail and nor does it lose any quality, the quality (original pixel) simply get stretch out.
If you would have shot the same photo with a normal lens the cabinet would be the same size as in the corrected photo but with out the pixels stretch out so the details would be 2 times as good.

I know the fisheye is an extreme example but it's the same lens correction does with a normal lens but far less.

Because the amount of pixels are the same.
An upscaled photo of 10mp to 20mp would also be the same size as a 20mp photo but that doesn't mean the upscaled photo has more details.

Strange actually that they only allow journalist, what if you're an artists that use a camera?

Copyright and privacy laws are different between countries, it won't be a lot of use for me to read about English copyright law while I've no intention to go there ^^;

Btw as far as i understand the copyright on photos i take will be have Dutch copyright because i'm a Dutch citizen, even if i'm abroad, right?
Privacy law is another matter though.

Well over-thinking it is good, it keeps you sharp

The problem lies that the corrected photo and the non corrected photo holds the same information because it's the same photo, only the corrected one is a bit stretched in certain ways.

In a simpler explained way you're suggesting to compare a 10mp photo and an upscaled version of the same photo to 20mp to compare the difference the amount of pixels on the sensor made.
You see that it doesn't work?
You need to compare a native 10mp with a native 20mp photo to see the difference.

So to see the difference the digital correction make you need to compare it with an optical correct image since you can't use the same source as the standard to compare it with.

The digital correction will not add or lower the details in a photo but it will have less details than a photo taken with an distortion free lens.
The same way as a upscaled 20mp photo doesn't have the same detial as a native 20mp photo.
