Hi Rob. Long time no chat.
http://tinyurl.com/yqmc5z <-- you (it is you, right?) look very much like Connor McLeod here ;-). As for your obs about K10D... I never managed to produce leveled images handheld consistently - neither with *istD nor with K10D. Having bought a monopod improved things some. However when I do align the lines in the viewfinder with focus bracket marks and when I manage to keep it this way throughout the exposure ;-) - it comes out all right. My preferred mode of operation is very similar to yours: P-mode (I just love hyper program two wheeled operation) with Auto ISO set to 100-400... It seems to work properly for me. In fact, my observation is that it would raise the ISO only at the last resort. I tried using this mighty WB thingie and it worked some. However, obviously my camera's screen does not display WB precisely - there is some magenta shift. Since it is impossible to change color temperature of in-camera LCD screen (most probably would be or already is implemented in some Canon monster ;-) ) I don't bother with it any more. You see, generally as a ballpark auto WB works for me. Then (having finally shelled out cash for Adobe LightRoom) I can adjust it in post processing. Although auto WB of my K10D is much more to the point than that of *istD. Finally, thanks to certain folks here, I did buy the Adobe LightRoom and I love it immensely. Just yesterday I sat down and processed two dozen images in less than an hour. It does amaze me how fluent and user oriented is its whole concept. Cheers!
