Paradigm Changer

If the image is in focus for only part of the image, then it`s a lens problem (assuming these "parts" are in the same focal plane and therefore should be in focus together).

@Barney: Yours is the kind of response that we see on many other forums lacking emotional maturity. If the site owners start deriding members of their community, it`s really just final confirmation...

18.4% of 11.7% is a lot less than "almost one fifth". Only 62 of 2885 companies surveyed gave in to demands, and only an estimated 34 in the year preceding the survey.That makes 1.2% in the past...

Did you use an optical filter in no. 2, or was it pure PP?Thanks.

Where do they say what their sampling variance is?

You may find that a silent majority even of scientists will be content to let you believe that some higher power created the physical constants before the Big Bang banged. Doesn't mean they...

Yeah, I'd have to boycott this challenge. Intelligent design is a concept that belongs in the trash can.

I rather suspect the firmware update was behind it, since that dramatically improved AF performance. It also seems to temporally coincide precisely with this surge in popularity.

Maybe we haven't been told all the details of what the "s" stands for - two variants that have been floating around were "super" and "speed", although "sharp" seems another good candidate from the...

Thanks, Dave.

Is there any news on this? Should I have marked this as a question rather than a post?

Just curious... what were you missing in the K-r?

Hi David,The answer actually depends on the size and extent of the moire-causing subject in your image. Image moire can in fact be caused by scaling down. Art media such as engravings are...

Motion JPEG is better quality, yes. Much bigger file size as well. Each frame is a JPEG image.

Fantastic. You should be a maths prof. :)

I believe there is an interview or some such where a Pentax representative comments that getting the colour rendition right after the removal of the filter was a significant challenge.

Yes, but moire is still more extreme in all known cases on the K-5 IIs than the K-30. So maybe testing the waters, but not outright removal of the filter.

Better on the K-30 at any realistic shutter speed.

Hi All,I decided to download the DPR K-5 II and K-5 IIs standard studio sample images and try a standard post-production software that includes moire removal. The following are my results and...

Keep in mind that from everything I've read, that unless you are very keen on focus peaking, the K-5 II is going to be your absolute no-regrets solution.
