RAW+jpeg is very handy - you don't have to think about which format you should be shooting in (is this a quick 'record' shot or a masterpiece?) and memory's cheap enough.... Plus there's no risk of accidentally shooting in the wrong format!

The jpeg also serves as a preview image if your PC doesn't show RAW images in thumbnails. However now I'm on LR3 so this is less important and I tend to err towards shooting just RAW more than I used to.

I think the green button practically does that by default anyway...

I wasn't particularly taken with the 200mm/f4 - didn't seem any sharper than my little Pentax-A 80-200mm zoom (and also heavier & less convenient).

I'm looking for a Pentax F 70-210mm at the moment, which I believe will still be fairly compact and would have the advantage of AF as well!

Excellent as usual, first four in particular and especially no. 3...

Two 'all time lows' in one week, what are the chances...

If anyone has one of these rattling around, I will gladly take it off your hands! Thinking of paying between £60 and £75 all-in, depending on condition.

Well, looking for images I have just googled 'Pentax stand at Focus 2011' - and unfortunately this thread is the first thing google brings up. So anyone casually googling this subject will be greeted with the phrase 'The Awful Pentax Stand'. For all our moaning about other people slagging off the brand, we do a pretty good job of it ourselves.

Other than the shot of the handsome fellow with the massive zoom, did anyone take any pictures of the stand?
