Unlimited (was 100GB but went to 25GB in July 2008 and down to 10GB on August 19, 2009) Unlimited space and bandwidth is valid only for non-commercial use. Uploaded photos must either be smaller than 1 MB or 1024x768 in size (5 MB or 2240x1680 with paid account.


Is this wrong??
No you're right but do you need more then that?

That's what I asked and you said it was just to show photos on this forum, then we are talking about 800x600px photos like HG and those are 70kB if you compress them good or else they might be max 150kB.

If you want to have bigger photos then you must use something else, then you come sites like Flickr, Redbubble or Deviantart but those are more problematic to link a photo from.
If it's just for showing here on this or another forum then Photobucket is the easiest.

Btw they say 1 MB or 1024x768
but this one is larger, I think they just have the 1mB limit these days.

Yes that's it and indeed that's one reason to use a larger sensor.

The biggest problem is that when the pixels get smaller less light falls on them so they need to amplify the signal more from what I understand.

You got me also confused but I think I get you.

A normal print is often around the 250 dots per inch you can roughly translate dots to pixels I believe.
If you've more pixels you've more dots so more inch you can print, I believe we all agree on that.

Now the problem is since the quality of a pixel of the K7 is not as good as the quality of the larger pixel of the K100D there is more to think about.

One of the biggest advantages that the more pixels brings is the ability to capture finer detials better even if the quality per pixels is less and that's one reason why you can print largers prints with more pixels since there is more detial in it.
So the details are finer but the quality of those detials is less, I hope you understand that.

It's a bit like you paint with a smaller brush but with less quality paint.


Now you can also print small and since a standard is 250 dots per inch and you want to have a print 2 by 2 inch you see you don't need as many dots and so the finer detials the smaller pixels captured are lost, I think you already undstood that but wanted to at it just in case.

Simon, did you like the focal length if so there is a Pentax DA14mm f/2.8 you know, might that be something?

Hang on, my world view has suffered a paradigm shift.
you're right but no program is without bugs sadly

Leopard wasn't a success story either

Offering not good... why not?
You got 500MB and the only thing you want to do is throw the photos on there on show them here. 800px on the long side is more then enough so then you get photos that are 50kB to 70kB that's around the 10.000 photos till you've filled that 500MB
Since you aren't interested in other features I wouldn't worry about them.

You can use the PUF gallery but you can only upload one photo a day unless you subscribe to the PUF magazine.

I remember someone posting a photo where the "face defection" on the camera recognize a face win a building, are you hoping for something like that

If it's just to upload a photo to show it here I would suggest photobucket also, they even provide a link that you can copy and paste here to show your photo correctly with other sites it's a bit harder to get it to show here on the forum.

Also most other sites support a community and there are also sites that are more professional and give you a whole website almost to showcase your photos but you need to pay for those.
So the question is what do you want?

Jack is selling his link
If you ask nicely you could maybe send the money to his Spanish bank if he has one, if so you don't pay for the transfer or at least a lot less.

The DA55-300 is always regarded as a solid performer so I think it's safe to get it.
