"If you are taking picnic snapshots, jpeg might just be a way to go but if you want to make a decent photograph, shoot RAW. Just like we used to compare different developers and films, we now can compare different RAW converters (I use ACR exclusively, but I was a Dektol freak in the film days.......)
So don't even worry about a camera's jpeg processing! Personally, I think Canon overdoes it but that's their prerogative.
If you want to make a real photograph, give yourself all the latitude that you can get. Shoot RAW"

"I agree that the K10D has the capacity to produce better jpegs than any camera in it's class... and at least one that outclasses it (the D200).
What frustrates so many of us, is without shooting RAW, it doesn't.
Ben is right, shooting RAW is best, but workflow does not always allow for the time it takes to do that with 300+ images. Besides, I shouldn't need to shoot RAW to optimize the camera's output... geesh."

the sock puppets out number the sensible people so the sock puppets win..
its called consensus science.. and any one that thinks pentax isnt fully aware of the k10s dodgy jpegs is a fool..

ps.. and MJS.. never get that clever in your power of argument that u can actually prove the fools to be what they are.. i have just been driven off a litttle none photographic forum for doing just that.. a monopoly on being right is not allowed even if u are.. he he
my mistake was trying to arrive at some "consensus" agreed "definitive" answers".. its not possible.. he he
