Any netbook with a 6 cell battery will last all day. My Samsung lasts 12 hours!

Anyone try the 18-135?
I'd like to know how that performs.
I was hoping to try this lens but Steve from Pentax stated that they didn't have any lenses, they only had a mock-up which they didn't bring with them.
I guess Pentax Germany were hanging on to their copies then. They had it at Photokina.

As has been stated in another thread Irfanview will definitely open them. It too is free.

Smeggy - you can't open PEFs from the K5 in Lightroom yet. It needs an update to do that, which isn't yet out. Every camera produces different PEFs and software needs an update to read it. Same with other manufacturers RAW files btw. NEFs from the D7000 will be equally unreadable.

Since Lightroom is pretty new, recently updated in fact, and all these manufacturers knew they were bringing out new cameras it would have been nice if they'd shared with Adobe and all the other RAW converters so they were set up and ready to go. But that requires too much co-operation of course.

My other half tells me I am wrong.

Eric, our fungi friend, used to call them that, which I remembered, but my OH thinks they (the Wolfs farts) are actually an American Puffball not a European one. Sorry .

But I knew the photos were of some sort of puffball. Quite tasty as I recall but you can only eat them when they are young.

Well it was certainly one reason I chose the Samsung over say the ASUS. though it does vary from country to country apparently which sort of screen is fitted with some makes.

It says it will. Only one button works with Pentax DSLRs though so you have to be sure to hit the right one!
