With the K20D PEF is better - DNGs are, as you have found out huge with the K20D.
You can always convert the PEFS to DNGs once you have them in the computer.

Surely you mean extended centre columns? I've used three tripods with them (not extended) now and they all seemed very stable. The RS even has a little retractable hook on the bottom of the centre column to hang some ballast from.
He means if you have to use the centre column to get the height you need, so you are not breaking your back bending over the thing all the time, then stability is drastically decreased.

I took the centre column out of my Velbon. It is more than tall enough without it, but I still have a short column so I can use the camera upside-down or use a hook.

Most tripods come with a hook for ballast. My Velbon even comes with a rock hammock as well as a hook.

I've got one as well, perhaps we could arrange for them to meet.
