If you leave the JPEG settings at full resolution and normal defaults, approximately 8-12x will be close to 1:1 pixel resolution for checking sharpness.
Since I capture exclusively in RAW format, I set JPEG settings to minimum size, sharpening and contrast so that the histogram is as close to what the RAW data should show as possible. 8x and the preview JPEG is looking a bit blurred in this case. So I rarely "chimp" at all ... I turn off auto-review. But I leave histogram and saturation blinkies running when I do digital preview for checking exposures intentionally.

And what is K10D equivalent of 100%? -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
