Love 'em. Definitely worth a return visit sans toddler and with your preferred lens.

Photomatix is pretty good and the book I have on HDR seems to rate it very highly. I think in general that the process of squishing the DR down makes the image flat and a second stage of tweaking the contrast gives it life again. I don't think there is a way around it, but as I import all my HDR images into Lightroom I just tweak it there before exporting the jpg.

Best wishes, Kris.

My heart would be doing the thinking in this case...

That looks like the right one, many thanks indeed.

BW for me too. I find that having created an image using Photomatix I have to import it into CS3 to adjust contrast etc. otherwise it looks too flat!

I can work from those instructions, thanks Stefan.

This may be part of the problem, Peter, but not the entire story. I took two photographs with my A series 50mm lens, both at f/8 and the same shutter speed and ISO on my K20D. With one I set the aperture using the ring (as if I was using an M series lens), the other was taken setting the aperture on the body. There was about a half stop difference in the exposure according to the histogram.

SRS should have their lens rental up & running soon. Why not rent a 50-135mm for the day ?

Very good plan. A beautiful lens which is lovely for portraits wide open.

Do you ever shoot film? Yes: buy the FA77. No: buy the DA70.

I was just thinking the same thing Terry, although on the early Pentaxes "T" meant when you pressed the button it opened the shutter but then you had to turn the shutter speed dial to another speed to close it again.
