I received the K20d and today the 18-55 lens I won on eBay arrived...
Now I'm waiting for the SD (Trascend 8GB class10) and I'm ready to shot!!!

I'm reading the Magic Lantern guide (very useful) and finally I'll try the camera on Saturday!!!

I'll let you know...and maybe I'll let you see the less worst picture!

Actually...I think I may have a problem with RAWTherapee...

When I open it I have a dos-prompt window with this message:

(rt.exe:356: Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "clearlooks",

What does it mean?

Thanks for the website, it's very useful!

Did you guys know RAWTherapee? What do you think about it?

Hello everybody, I'll receive soon my K20d and a 18-55 and I'll start my new (serious) life in digital photography!

At the end I decided to shoot in Raw+Jpeg and to use Picasa+Picnik and GIMP+UFRaw+G'MIC...so I'll be able to receive regular updates without paying for the software.

Now...I'm looking for guides, tutorials, howto, etch...
I mean...I'm tick...I don't know what a layer is, I don't know what an histogram is...
Is there any "serious digital photography for dummies"?

RAW+?
Ok, I'll take your advice, it seems sensible!

Do you know if there is a possibility to download the K20d manual?So I'll be able to study a bit before I receive the camera.

Well...the fact is that I've never used an image software seriously before...
I used Picasa and GIMP...but I don't know if it's better to start using (and learning) something else...
Someone suggested digiKam, I found Rawterapee...and I read about GIMP+UFRaw...

I'm a bit confused...

Thank you guys, thanks a lot!

I can't wait to receive the K20d and start using it...

A friend of mine just gave me an original cd with Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0...but I think it's useless...now they're on version 9.0...

Anyway, I found this software: RawTherapee

www.rawtherapee.com

What do you think about that?
