Nice! You got a lot of detail! Pedantry alert: did you actually crop to 50% area or 50% of linear dimensions (which would be a quarter of the area)? > The AF on the K10D really doesn't seem to work well with long glass, > it kept annoying me by always starting to focus closer when it needed > to go further away.

Which AF mode were you using? (I'm curious because I've been seeing my own AF glitches with K-x/K-5 and I'm wondering whether there's some pattern.) -- Hugs and backrubs -- I break Rule 6 http://rule6.info/ <*> <*> <*> Help a hearing-impaired person: http://rule6.info/hearing.html -- 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.
