Thought I would share this one, it just proves what a stunning camera the K10D can be, esp with a 50mm prime, it was taken in the most appalling light conditions too. I hope his mum and dad like it when I get it to them, pretty amazing eyes!

No, you can't have it.
It will mean you will be able to take even better photographs,
I do feel I am being 'unfaithful' to K10D, really, but, he will perform a very important roll on days to come No, you can't have it.
It will mean you will be able to take even better photographs,
Thanks for the links..

Re my impending trip I shall be checking in on you all as and when I can and will even try and post up images if possible, which I am sure it will be, who knows!
Now as to your observation of my spot on exposure, hands up! It was an HDR, I took just two exposure on the tripod 2 stops apart as an experiment, usually I take 3 or even 5. That is the reason why the detail is somewhat intangible! This is the one aggravating thing about HDR that annoys me, that they always seem soft, obviously because it it more than one exposure. Havn't discovered yet how to summount it, ideas please?
So, don't let it put you off the 10-20, it is just great and I am very happy with it, this shot is not a fair example of how sharp it is.
Well done Hefty, I liked yours best as well, worthy winner.
I found it a diffcult subject to get my head around and that surprised me, all good challenging stuff though, love the comp, feels much more like home
I think the separate feedbakc is good to go with judges comments, as long as judge doesnt get tempted to view comments

The Pentax one I linked to earlier does not have a tripod mount.
This one would do the job though?

I've got an identical one and I've just checked that a Pentax flash does fit in the slot, and it also has a tripod socket.
Depends if you can live with the Nikon branding??

You should be aware that the VP5500 doesn't support K20DRAW, only K10D and earlier. There is a firmware upgrade available from the Vosonic site which may include K20D RAW...?
I have been thinking about this... if an SD card is taken out of a K10D or a K20D to download to one of these devices, should it make any difference? My logic says no, but if anyone knows different please tell. I think maybe they dont mention the K20D because it wasn't made then! Bit like the K10D battery grip which says only compatible with K10D!...
