Re: The K3 III in the comparison tool

Hello flektogon

Thank you for your reply about the JPG's. I only know that I can match the look of the JPG's via this settings, but I personally use only RAW files. But of cause, when you see the Pentax JPG's in this comparison tool, a user like you know that the look of the Pentax JPG's depend so much on this camera settings, like for all other brands too. I think DP use here for the comparison tool the standard (default camera) settings for the JPG's, but I am not sure about this.

Hi KPM2,

Regarding the out-of-camera JPEG shooting, Pentax usually allows you to set:

- fine sharpenning

- extra sharpenning

The first one corresponds to the radius of 2 In the photo editors (at least in ACDSee, which I use), while the second setting is finer, it corresponds to the radius of 1.

The sharpening "strength" can be set (in the Pentax cameras) somewhere between -4 to + 4. The setting of 0 corresponds to the sharpening amount of 50%, the maximum negative setting actually disables sharpening completely.

best regards. KPM2
