Glad you like it. The K10D is a very fine camera offered at an excellent price. Its value proposition is similar or equal to that of the Nikon D200 at 2/3 the price, and it has some features that are unique and very useful.
It also does a damn fine job of 'getting out of the way' in use, which I appreciate a heck of a lot. > Question: Is that Bright mode anything > special or is just some combination of Sharpness, Contrast, and > Saturation that I could do with the three sliding scales.

The "Bright" color tone resets the base parameters upon which other image processing settings for JPEG rendering are dependent. So while you might be able to get close to what Bright color tone does by setting "Natural" then tweaking the SCS controls, the setting changes the range and nature of adjustability of the other SCS controls.
