Originally posted by simico Thanks! Actually I was wrong on the NR, just noticed that NR is at factory default med setting for ISO6400 - I turned off NR for all other ISO values, seems like somehow I missed this one.
I'm also a RAW shooter, but my raw developer app doesn't support K-5 yet (will send them lots of PEF and DNG this weekend), so at the moment I shoot in RAW+ mode and just use the jpegs.
Lens was Sigma 30mm f/1.4. Pic should have EXIF intact.
Hopefully I'll have some time to play with K-5 at the weekend, work really exhausts me on workdays and taking care of my little daughter takes up almost all of my free time in the evening.
Still, not bad at all!
By the way, why don't you use the Pentax Camera Utilities, provided on CD, with your camera when you bought it?
I have been using this RAW "converter" ever since I owned a K10D, then a K20D and now a K7, with good results.
I am told that the latest version is quite stable and efficient (v. 4.31?).
Sorry I missed on the lens via the EXIF data; this Sigma seems like a great lens and according to the reviews, great IQ.
Take it easy over the weekend .... health and family come first!
Cheers.
