Well, it did not sound that fast......... until he put the K20D next to it...... which sounds like dinosaur in comparison.

The files probably have to be processed before they can be combined. Hence no RAW. Same deal with multiple exposure I bet.

actually no, it is not 8-bit (8-bit = 256 shades of color), it's 24-bit, full-color JPEG. it's 8-bit per channel, and that's the only way to save image that's viewable on any consumer screen available.

it's pointless to store images with full-HDR information when there is no device to display that file, so please, stop whining - you just showed that you know absolutely nothing about high dynamic range images.

I dont know... sounds good to me... enough to where I viewed & reviewed the pressing of the shutter portion of the video about 10x's ...

ryan s · 05-20-2009, 11:36 AM

I couldn't understand a word from that Spanish video

Nice to see it side by side with the K20 though

25minutes, seems to be a filesize limit as the file would be 4gb which is the max fat32 filesize
