Not on my screen Algi, so I guess it varies with browser and/or screen dimensions.

Very nice set of images, all excellent and well suited to black and white.

Looking at the *istD today, one of the most striking things is how tiny the rear screen is.

Proper glass pentaprism, professional level features for its day and a huge price tag. It took the *istDS to arrive to make DSLR photography affordable for us.

It's quite an impressive display of cameras and lenses though. I wonder if there's some mega-rich collector somewhere who's bought one in every colour combination...I wouldn't be surprised.

The viewfinder statement is a bit sloppy because what it means is the magnification of the viewfinder image is greater in the K-3. The K-3 also has a 100% viewfinder, meaning that everything that appears in the image will be visible in the viewfinder. That's the bit that's relevant to things creeping in at the edge of our images, not the magnification.

I'm not sure I'd buy high tech products like this from general retailers. If there's a problem the backup can be dire, although I've not tried it via Argos to be fair to them. I did have a laptop that needed return to Currys and they trashed it whilst it was with them.

I think if you split them then the easiest way to deal with them is in an HDR program such as Photomatix.

To be honest, if that were the case I don't think there's much point in letting the camera align anything. Photomatix can do that if necessary, but if the camera's on a tripod then there shouldn't really be any misalignment. Would you want hand held HDR?

Sorry I can't help with DXO or Lightroom, but maybe somebody else can.

They are there as a JPEG file. In fact, as far as I recall, they are only available as a JPEG as the processing and combination is done by the camera.

Nigel, you have no need to feel daunted, they are really good shots. I like them!
