New PC is my priority this year, although the 21mm would've been nice 2 weeks ago in Venice.

My i3 computer with its measly 6GB of RAM struggles a lot with images from the D810/D850 and K-1 (K-1 was the first one of the three I got and first realised my computer was not up to the mark - 6 years later.......) Bad enough converting RAWS is LR to Tiff, but as soon as I open Topaz or Silver FX Pro the lights on our street dim.
Get a Mac... they're much better for photography work. Bit more expense but far far better.

Is there a Pentax Compact that is capable of shooting RAW images with good camera controls?

I know about GR range...

Thanks

I think they're great! Don't see how you could improve them. Amazing to think that each of those dots is a sun. There's got to be intergalactic Pentax shooters out there somewhere with lenses we could only dream about!

Oh, I did find one way to improve that image

A few months some one said try it with Silvanian Family toys... I got a couple and an idea came to my mind

I have not tried this before....

So I thought I would give it a go in a crap fashion...

I am planning on doing it again when I can get either a print out of, or a model small enough to do it properly!

So here it is...

A salute to my hero....

EDWARD VAN HEDGEHOG!!!!!!!
