RAW files have never been totally 100% RAW as a certain amount of processing is needed to make sense of the Bayer grid info and merge it into a full colour image at every pixel site.

One huge disadvantage of EVFs is you can't quickly look through the camera without switching it on. They also lag when panned. The colour balance can be dreadful. They don't all have enough resolution.
A good pentaprism gives a superb, real world image that is sharp, crisp and unwavering.
However, for those who want an EVF they exist aplenty.

That's a wonderful dramatic image, superb. I'll move the thread into Your Photos.

Agree with Horst, DSLR every time for lots of reasons.
The MX-1 makes a pretty fantastic multi-purpose compact, much under-rated by the Pentax community in general. I really like mine and it feels like a real, solid camera. All that brass!

My initial observation is that, apart from the last two which start to stray, your colour in these is much, much better. Whatever you have done differently has worked well.

I haven't used a bulk film loader for many, many years. More of a nuisance than it's worth, that is even if these days you can buy bulk film in the type you want.
There are still good films around, in colour I'm way out of date, in black and white some classics survive or have even been re-introduced.
My all time favourite black and white film was Kodak Tri-X, followed closely by Agfapan 400 and Acupan 200.

Of course, but there's a sensible threshold with this surely? Is anyone that much of a RAW purist in that they want control of the low level processing done to turn the electronic signals come from the sensor into the non processed basic picture?
Certainly IMHO Pentax make more of Sony sensors than Sony do themselves.
