Speaking of metering with that screen, seems the trouble with exposure of k and m lenses on the k10d can be corrected if a screen from the ist DS is installed. Well, that is what people are reporting on DPreview. Dave J. C. O'Connell wrote: > Cool! I wont wait for what's available, I will >

There do seem to be some metering inconsistencies with the K10D and the green button stopdown mode, depending on the EV and the aperture setting. Some testing I did subsequent to my first tests are at: http://homepage.mac.com/godders/mCAL/calibration-K10.txt http://homepage.mac.com/godde

I haven't tested anything of course. (I don't do that.) But I've shot with the K85, the K28, the K 135/2.5 and the Vivitar Series 1 90/2.5. I rarely shoot at an ap smaller than f8, so that could explain why I haven't encountered a problem. Firmware mods should be able to fix exposure discr

The latest Pentax software is useable, heck the old software did alright, it just wasn't the best. You need Photoshop CS2 to get RAW support for PEF files IIRC. Download Pixmantic's Raw Shooter Essentials while it's still available for your conversions. It's all you really need for the DS.
