Looks like a number of Pentaxforum members bought one. The results they posted don't really inspire me tbh. All the glow of a fast lens wide open, with none of the narrow dof.

The size depends on what you want to use them for. Those sizes are small but OK for web viewing. Do not permanently resize your photos to that size without keeping the originals!

There are simple photoresizers out there, but they produce soft images (they do not resharpen after resizing). Remember you can download back from flickr onto your hard drive for writing onto CD.

Stunning light Simon. Not sure of the composition in the first one, but the last two are wonderful. The fairy glen one is magical.

If you want simple, try uploading to a flickr account. You can then view them at various standard sizes - 500, 640, 800, 1600, and 2048, and download them. Flickr also processes the pictures quite well I think - applying a smidge of sharpening for each size option.

I assume you're right Greg - I wouldn't know becuase it's 10x easier to focus/recompose than move the AF point using the arrow buttons.

Another point to bear in mind is that the AF sensor picks up a larger area than the red dot you see on the screen, leading to false focus confirmation. This happens all the time so you need to use your eyes too!

Maybe this is the look they are going for: http://ajklijs.files.wordpress.com/2012/06/food-photography.jpg

I would certainly buy it, if he decides to upgrade again in the next few months!

My best camera buying experience was my K200D. It just so happens that I opened the camera and took my first test shots on a gorgeous summer evening down by the riverside (where my houseboat was moored!)

The red lights tell you which focus point is active.
