Yes it's possible the *ist-D and K10D both have a [+/-] button on the
back, just press press it and spin a wheel. It works fine on the D in
Hyper mode. I would expect it to be the same on the K10D.

Yes it was.
Remember the Nucore ADC also manages all CCD clocking/timing signals,
so I'm sure this solution

BTW, there is a speculation that the sensor for K10D may not be of Sony's.
There are a few minute differences other than the dimensions (which are also
different). People are speculating whose.

If you move the camera at all after the metering has been set with
the AE-Lock button, the EV value will reflect the difference between
what is now in the meter's sight and what was metered on. It's quite
sensitive. I often find it is off by .2 to .7 EV in either direction

Thanks. Rawshooter couldnt read it, said it was unsupported. I tried
Adobe's DNG convertor, same problem.
So I binary edited the files to change K100D - *ist DS. And it
worked!! :)
Rawshooter thinks they are *istDS raw files. Good enough for this
simple test that I'm doing.

There have been complaints about lack of AA battery power, and many felt
abandoned by Pentax engineers. But in fact, I don't think they have a
choice. K10D requires much higher voltage to run. The DC-in is 8.3V
instead of previous 6.5V.
I suspect that's because you are moving the camera in between
the two events. Try it with the camera on a tripod, pointed
at something with a constant level of illumination.

Interestingly, some reviews were negative about the use of AA in previous
cameras, as they were unhappy about the lack of rechargeable solution in
the included camera package. So you can't keep everyone happy.
When I got my *ist D I knew I could get rechargeable AA's, but chose to use
AA

Anybody else out there get 6 raw continuous?
I get six RAWs. Or maybe five. I'll have to check the archives and see
what the longest sequence I have is. I can remember a five shot
sequence of a Formula SCCA

The Program Shift and EV compensation controls are how I shoot with
the Sony R1 most of the time. Sony also programmed the camera to
understand exposure evaluation for RAW vs JPEG as well, so the auto
exposure on the R1 is amongst the most accurate I've seen for RAW
shooting.
