My apologies.....So though the PEF recognition has been around for a while. The K5iis camera profile was only understandably introduced with 7.3. I hadn't realised that as I use CS6.

If you are using Photoshop CS5. You need to visit the Adobe website and free upgrade to the latest Camera Raw. 7.3 from memory. It's the latest version. Then you will have no problems using PEF or DNG raw files. It will save you a lot of agony and ebay seller fees....

It's not the camera manual you should be reading. But your software manual. Though Photoshop 5 or 6 are now very very old software.
I'm sorry, but Photoshop CS6. Bridge, Or more to the point Camera Raw 6.3 or later, is fully compatible with the processing of Pentax PEF raw files.

Lightroom 5 is just about to be released, and has has some great new functions.

In my opinion Lightroom is not a stand alone proramme, for editing images. Though you can certainly edit images, with it. It's greatest asset is for catalogueing your image collection. In real terms its a glorified camera raw. It offers a saving over Photoshop, with will attract many. But for me photoshop, would still be my choice.

Option 1 for me too.. I feel the 18 - 250 far too large a lens for your walk about option.

Confusing points of interest for me. I think its a stronger image if you crop out the beach/rocks.

Picked out the "natural goodness" very well John...

Great idea John, a privilege to be included in it. Must try and make the front cover next year... (We can all have dreams...lol) Upgrading to the K5ii has helped me make giant strides in image quality.

Glad to hear the problem's solved.
DNG format is pretty well universally recognised, and to the best of my belief there's no particular advantage to using PEF, so it just seems to be much less troublesome to use DNG.
