I shoot RAW, and I would be inclined to resize my shot for the competition rather than upload a massive file straight from my camera. Therefore I will need to make some tweaks, possibly using one of my own presets, and it is important to sharpen after the image is resampled.

However the best DSLRs can produce great images at very high ISOs - 6400 is no problem for the K5 for example. Images will still be very detailed.

Did you get hold of your long tele, and was it needed?

I've had no bother importing Pentax avi's into Corel Video Studio - or even Windows Movie Maker! Unedited files will only play in VLC though, presumably due to a missing codec.

Great set, but no.1 (Strokes?) Plan B and Tinie Tempah really stand out.

Dizzee Rascal's images are going to be featured on Bing this week. Here's one of them - I like it!

But he says “I bought a big camera so that I can take proper pictures" so it's probable that he didn't use a Pentax .

You aren't doing it to counter any deficiency in your camera or technique (hopefully!) but restoring the sharpness which is lost when you resize an image. Resizing means the whole image is resampled, which softens what was previously sharp. Also undoes any in-camera sharpening!
