I find this recently fashionable bashing of the Samsung sensor funny. It was quite a breakthrough when it appeared and probably the best in its class at the time of introduction. It's still a great sensor now, IMO - I prefer it over the sensor in the K-X at ISO settings below 800, which is all I ever use. If Samsung expanded the same sensor to full-frame size I'd happily buy a camera that employed it. -- 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.
