reading the bits and producing a recognizable image isn't enough. it has to be tagged with and processed with the right profiles. since Pentax hasn't published the file format, it's hard to tell what nonlinearities the Pentax software corrects for yet. comparing the bits between TIFF16 and what dcRaw puts out isn't worth my time.
