The Manfrotto has a basic thread connection - ie no ball or pan type head. The Velbon has a 2way pan head with a Q/R plate
Find the direct connection to camera or lens's tripod mount fine. Not been in a position I can recall where using it as a angle brace, as K10D decribes, would have been better.
Hope that clarifies my comment Stefan
No Steve it doesn't since I asked the question how do you keep a stable stance without a head on the monopod.The Manfrotto has a basic thread connection - ie no ball or pan type head. The Velbon has a 2way pan head with a Q/R plate

The only thing the mono does now is support the weight and add some stability but if you want to get the best stability you need to put some pressure down the mono pod and use your own legs as well so that it basically becomes a tripod. link

You could be right, the KAF-40000 (that is in the 645D) has the same contacts as the KAF-50100 so they can easier be changed.It`s my guess that this new generation of sensor is based on the one that Kodak introduced a year or so ago.

The content fill is something you need to learn, it's not so magic as they say it is.
When you catch a very small edge of something it goes all wrong I notice.
You need to make a small egde around the problem area so the the program knows better how to fill it in.
here i've used it on this shot, it's on the girls shirt near a pattern. It was quite big around the size of the pink flowers in the middle of her shirt. Now can you tell me where it was?

Thank you i didn't knew that, I hope Pentax will convert their profile into one compatible with Adobe. I think it's ajust a matter of time.- *NO* Pentax camera/lens profiles for automatic lens correction.

The K7 is also the only Pentax with an extra sensor for the AF that adjust the AF to the type/colour of light so that it is more accurate.
And also you can adjust the AF of 20 lenses (right?) if one front or back focus.

New flash control system wouldn't have to be niche as being WiFi, it could become an industry standard across all makes, would never happen though!
hmmm a flash system with Wifi now that might be something Sorry Don, how could I forget!

Although I think bleutooth is a better option since that's more energy efficient I believe and easier to setup, only the speed is a bit slow although 3MB/s isn't that bad right?

Ah but ISO400 can be too high in some circumstances like in the studio, flashes can only dial down so far, i sometimes already have problem with ISO100. The solution appears to be simple; do not shoot below the base ISO on the Kx, whatever that may be.
It depends on what you need from your camera, it's not for nothing I'm holding on to my K10D

You can compare the IQ on Dpreview, you will find the K7 or K20D is better then the two you named.

So if someone developed a mono sensor it should be capable of far higher quality as it's not trying to capture colour information. In theory it would be easier to make but production runs would be much shorter so probably cost more.
Because it has a colour filter in front of each pixel a pixel sees the light level of a particular colour and with the help of other pixels seeing a different colour you create a coloured photo.
The only thing you've to do is remove the colour filter of the sensor and remove parts of the program that builds a coloured image and ur done.
