Interesting resource

Hey folks --

so, I just bought the CS2 upgrade for Photoshop (not the whole Suite because, although I have the whole CS1 Pro suite, Adobe's upgrade pricing is just bizarre -- but I won't get into that here) and since I'm still waiting for my k10d, I thought "I wonder if I can download a k10d RAW to play with anywhere?"

After a little digging, I found this subdomain of a Polish site:

http://raw.fotosite.pl/

They have visitor-submitted RAW files for a whole bunch of different cameras and lenses. The quality is quite mixed, but I had a few hours of fun downloading a few and playing with Adobe's Camera RAW converter. If nothing else, it lead me to the FA 35mm F2 AL which just reaffirmed my whole decision to buy the k10d!

Granted, I'm pixel-peeping, but check it out, if you have as much time on your hands as I do (granted, you probably don't, you all HAVE your cameras!] http://raw.fotosite.pl/index-Pentax_K10D_SMC-FA_35-F2_iso.htm -- scroll to the bottom and download zaslony.DNG

I'll cut to the chase: 1600 ISO, f/2 (WIDE open) 1/30 and I can still pull out THREAD detail on those curtains. Unbelievable! (Just to clarify upon rereading -- no, that's not my picture)

*anticipatory happy dance*
