They have to pay for this site somehow. I'd rather not have even more advertising or 'payment only' sections of the main site.

Ways I sees it, the online articles are the equivalent of the old quarterly magazine, which you had to pay for.

Not a flipping clue Chris - my advice is don't sweat about the file numbering and use photome or similar to check shutter count

Sorry, that's not really very helpful is it?

You can't usually sell a pair of shoes for the same - or more - money than you paid for them either

For a wide shot you could get away with a low shutter speed and a tripod. Say if the kid are sitting attentively.Or use flash.

It is the shake reduction mechanism - nothing to worry about and perfectly normal.

No. 1 for me too, although I agree with Simon, no.2 isn't over done. Actually have you considered blending the HDR and non-HDR shots - the result might lighten the shadows slightly while keeping a more natural look?

I think it means that highlights can be clipped, and can not be pulled back in RAW as easily as with some cameras. The information is gone, and cannot be retrieved. Rather than allow it to clip highlights, you can dial in some negative exposure compensation, and lighten the dark areas in your RAW software. The Kr will produce less noise than the K20D did if you do this.

There's more than one way to skin a cat. I prefer the sharpening as fine as possible, but that means turning it up a bit as well. I actually use Focus Magic these days, rather than USM.

I think you should consider a wide lens to take in the whole scene, to tell the whole story.
