I find Helicon Filter a nice package, currently HeliconSoft are offering version 4.93.2 of their package as a free download link no strings attached (fully functioning).

You can also try a the Beta release of their new version 5 package, both include a RAW converter

I tend to think the lens reviews at Photozone are pretty straight. Certainly their observations were reflected very accurately with the Pentax lenses (FA, DA and DA* examples) I owned until recently.

So certainly I wouldn't suggest they were biased, in fact they tend to be my first port of call for investigation into potential lens purchases

When I had my K-7 I had official Pentax grip almost permanently attached.

I haven't seen this third party one by I can say the shear quality of build plus weather sealing would point me in the direction of the official version every time.

Just my opinion

An excellent monitor by all accounts, it's very likely to be the one that replaces my Dell 2407.

A couple of reviews if you haven't already come across them link and link

Likewise Ted, it may take longer but it's definitely more satisfying

So how waterproof are our cameras? Can you go swimming with a Pentax SLR if you've got a WR lens on?
I wouldn't go swimming but I can testify that the DA* 16-50 and K-7 will handle quite heavy rain without a problem

However I think I right in saying that WR lenses are not quite as resistant to the elements as the DA* range
