Re: Is this barrelling what was supposed to be firmware fixed?
Thank you very much for describing that for me. I'll digest it as I go along. Sorry for the convoluted question originally.
I just noticed something interesting. The RAW image above never was converted with Samsung's RAW converter. I'd viewed it in Faststone Viewer which provides some quick and easy processing then saved it as Jpeg.
I was looking at a dozen RAW files today in that viewer since it's such a quick way to preview shots and noticed vignetting. It's there in the second image above. I wondered what the heck? Scared me for a sec until I viewed a few images I'd converted yesterday with the RAW converter. How does the converter deal with vignetting? Must be a permanent part of the image. Side by side I noticed that conversion is a crop of the RAW image just enough to eliminate the vignetting. Is this common to other cameras/lenses when shooting RAW.
I realize many of the questions and concerns I've flooded this board with over the weekend are bit inappropriate overall. Most of them turn out to be questions any photographer ought to have the patience and diligence to resolve on his own, but I felt under pressure to evaluate this camera in a great hurry. So thank you very much for the assistance here and keeping me from getting too overwrought in the process.
