On a similar vein - I like the idea of a "(mostly) raw RAW", giving some of the PP control back to the photographer/image specialist. It might save some battery juice too. Given that I feel Pentax thinks more about the photographer than most other companies, I wonder if they will ever offer the option. Although, having a button for RAW++ (+++) might be a little wierd...

There is a setting in the K20, where you state the amount of NR that you wanna use.
Pentax is definitely a photographer’s company, even if some people feel that they are too old school at times
