Re: K10D RGB histograms in the instant review
I don't recall reading this manual, and found it accidentally when shooting a show one night. Set the K10D to digital preview, and take a preview shot. Then use the up/down button to toggle between full histogram and RGB histogram. That setting will be used for all instant review shots (if you have the histogram on, of course). One of the many little things I love about the K10D. D I'm only aware of a 'deep down' menu entry to switch between DOF-preview and digital preview. I have occasionally wondered whether a more direct way to switch would be helpful (eg. something like the RAW button -- which I don't use because I shoot RAW+ anyway). I'm curious whether I'm alone in this? Axel. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net

Hi Derby, The digital preview is a great tool and it appears to be pretty widely used by members of various Pentax fora at least. The discussion these days centre around what the in-camera jpg settings should be set to to provide the most accurate histogram view for RAW shooters as the histogram is apparently based on a low res jpg interpretation of the scene. BTW your film is (in the) safe.

I've got some catching up to do in the archives I suppose (or as Kenny Everett used to say, in the bowels of the BBC archives).
