Something else???
Exposures are variable often coming out too dark in bright sunny conditions. Focus is not good. I've tried setting up focusing using a focusing chart. I can up the f stops but then the bokeh is effected. Even then images don't come out too sharp.
I think part of the problem is the kit lenses aren't that good. I got a Sigma 17-70 which has better macro but a get similar problems with focusing.
I've got improved results with Raw processing but I find it hard to keep the colours right in Raw and often prefer the balance of the Jpeg output.
The sensor in the K30 should give improved results over a 1/2.3" point-and-shoot, but the wonky exposure and poor sharpness make me want to chuck the K30 in a lake.
