If Pentax had delivered a 6-8MP body with the functionality of the K10D but significantly improved noise, DR and sensitivity over the existing 6MP bodies do you think it would have been the short term hit that the K10D has? Do you seriously think that you're getting the best from every pixel using DA zooms on the 10MP sensor? I don't, let alone the the general edge unsharpness I've noticed from many of the new WA lenses even the CA often skews over four plus final image pixels. I'd be far happier with a larger sensor and some way to effectively use the legacy APS lenses to provide 6-8MP because really I think that's pretty much the limit of the image quality that they deliver. Granted my assessments are based on my one DA lens (which most often attracts rave reviews) and full res RAW and JPG sample shots from other new DA lenses by others. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
