Yeah, I'd also like any thoughts anyone cares to share on using the 540 for weddings, since that's what I bought it for.
One thing I've already experimented with on the K-10D is the Extended Bracket Mode - bracketing contrast gives you 3 different contrasts with one exposure; seems to work with auto-bracket so that you get 9 different exposures with a 3 frame bracket or 15 with a 5 frame bracket. Can the 540 re-cycle fast enough to do auto-bracketing? As far as the little stand goes, I've already thought about using it to hold a peanut slave and AF-280T for a background light in portraiture. 'course, it looks like my new 540 is going to have to go back to Pentax for warranty repair before I'm actually going to get to use it. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
