If you have a tripod you can take multipl shots and combine them to one image, would that be an option?

But the other type of noise reduction - basically for slow shutter speeds - is not possible to turn off. There are only "On" (for slow shutter speeds) and "Auto" settings.
I would be interested to know when exactly the Auto mode applies NR. The manual is vague.
On the K10D you can set those off though But the other type of noise reduction - basically for slow shutter speeds - is not possible to turn off. There are only "On" (for slow shutter speeds) and "Auto" settings.

BTW it's all in the manual, page 80
How many of you ever consider reading that thing

Noise Reduction
When you use a digital camera to shoot with a long exposure or high
sensitivity setting, image noise (image roughness or unevenness)
becomes noticeable.
You can reduce image noise by using Noise Reduction. Images shot
with Noise Reduction take longer to save.
Set in [17. Slow Shutter Speed NR] or [18. High-ISO Noise
Reduction] in the [A Custom Setting] menu.
Slow Shutter Speed NR
Auto: The camera determines the conditions such as the shutter
speed, sensitivity, and internal temperature, and automatically
reduces noise as necessary.
On: Reduces noise only when shooting at slow shutter speeds (0.3
seconds or more).
High-ISO Noise Reduction
Select the level of noise reduction from [Off], [Weakest], [Weak], or
[Strong] when shooting with a high-sensitivity setting.
It seems you can't set it off though but since you are using a long shutter time, I dont think your subject would run away Noise Reduction

One again and I'm sure Alan knows the answer
Today he is there to trip you up and he will torture you tomorrow.
Yet he is also there to ease the pain, when you are lost in grief and sorrow.

I remember it from the movie Labyrinth with David Bowie, do you know that movie?
To be honest with the riddle I don't even know the answer... I was thinking about a thought but an ideal is also along that line
Good night Alan and sweet dreams, I'm going to wait for someone dear to me. The word beer has make me thirsty so I'm getting some whisky I think, I can blame you right if I get drunk

Riddle me this
I exist only in your mind. Men have died and brothers have split because of me. Great nations were founded because of me. If you tell another of me, I may be stolen from you. If you ignore me, I cannot find my way. If you use me, I become something else. I am man's greatest achievements and most despicable actions. What am I?
Well that will keep you busy for a week I hope
just an question I've been thinking about;
If you don't see the moon then it isn't there right?

As do I, so heres a puzzle for you all, first one to post the correct answer wins.
You are in a room, there are two doors, one door will lead to your freedom the other will lead to your death, there is a guard at each door, niether will stop you from leaving, both guards know which exit is which, one of the guards will ALWAYS tell the truth, the other will ALWAYS lie, you however do not know which guard is which or which exit is which.
You may ask one guard one question, so how do you discover the correct exit:
mhmm I've indeed too much time Alan, because I think I already know this one. Stefan......

You asked one of the guards what will the other guard say and do the opposite. Am I correct?
Here is one for you;
I am what I am
but if you know what I am
I ain't what I am anymore
what am I?
oh and this one
It has six wheels and flies?

SP Coating
SP (Super Protection) coating is a special coating of the front lens element of particular PENTAX lenses. It is based on a fluoride bonding and prevents the contamination of the lens by waterbased or oily substances. SP coated lenses are much more easily cleaned of finger marks, smears or other matter than may come in contact with the lens.
