Now I'm confused. As I understand it, Pentax files are generally agreed
to be softer than other manufacturers' - because there is less
processing applied in camera? So I would then assume that sharper DNG
files would have _more_ processing.

Oh God, another one. When you have used your camera for a couple of

Isn't that what the K100D is for, and rightly so. The K10D is aimed at

I don't agree, as anyone who was @ GFM in 2005 will attest. I had a large

First, what does it change in your life and in your photos ? Absolytely

Second, many people can't be bothered with post-processing their photos.
Yes, that entails tradeoffs and/or

has anyone tried panning with SR turned on with K100D or K10D?

I'm pretty sure it would be a band limited system which would be
