Does it still work Ok on the K-5?

+1 - I have the A version, love it. Don't use it very often though.

Well he isn't really. He names several lenses and includes 'etc' at the end.

It's a bit over the top, I'd agree, but there's no need to misrepresent the claims.

I have no idea of the filter size of most of my lenses without looking, although I can just about remember that the 50mm is 49

I have been wondering if you're working on a computer that forces you to hit enter to create new lines after about 40 characters...

Exif Viewer isn't compatible with FF8 yet, according to the add-on compatibility report. So I'll be holding off for a bit.

You've now used the words 'surely' and 'just' in two consecutive posts.

It all ends in tears when you start talking like that...

If I had a quid for every time I'd heard myself or someone else say 'surely' in this sort of context

I would sooooooo love to get some Pentax senior technical guys in a room, fill them full of truth serum, and get to the truth about all the mad things they do and don't do.

We'd probably discover that the answer would often be "yes we know, X Y Z is crap, but we were never given the time/people/budget to do things properly, and the managers were always on our case, wanting everything yesterday."

Much like most businesses.

JR is banned from that room, by the way

Very nice indeed. A lot better than many I've seen.

#6 would have been magnificent if it hadn't been cut off by the edge of the frame. I guess you zoomed it out a bit for #9, but the impact isn't the same.

I reckon you should try putting some of them in a montage, and making them brighter if possible.

It could end up as a fabulous print if you were able to stitch them together nicely. Quite a lot of effort, but likely worth it.

Actually this begs an interesting question regarding MF lenses.

Given that it's not the camera moving the focus to the calculated point, but the operator, would you expect the BF/FF errors not to occur?

Or at least be consistent from lens to lens on the same camera?

K-7 or K-5 PEFs? I bet it can't.

Earlier cameras sure - I had CS3, and ACR 4 could open K10D PEFs, but not K-5 ones.

Features, perhaps.

It's the new version of ACR (that can read the newer PEFs) that old versions of CS can't use.
