Thanks SPB, found it! I was looking in the menu, but the BW filter was under a quick button. Putting it under a user is also a good suggestion!

With my Canon I could choose B&W mode and after that the pictures would be B&W on the rear LCD, even if I shot in RAW.
Has anyone figured out if this can be done with the K5? I've been through the menu's a few times but can't find that option.
Thanks, Nick

Thanks for posting that cambridgeincolour link Dan.

I guess i'll be sitting in the corner for a while apologizing and straightening pictures while framing them.

The author claims rotating a picture is detrimental to the quality... Back to school!

Can someone with a K5 or K7 and 31mm and 16-50 f2.8 lens do me a favour?
Can you measure the depth of lens and camera combined, with and without hood?
Thank you! Nick

Question on Limiteds from new Pentax user

Hi all,

Since going digital two years ago, first with a Canon and later an Epson rangefinder, it seems I’m going to settle with Pentax, just like 20 years ago when I bought my first camera, a ME Super.
I have bought a used ist DS and the 40mm pancake for it is in the mail. Besides that little take anywhere anytime package I also want to buy a K10d with that new 16-50 DA* lens and a few primes.

I have a few specific questions about those primes:
The 31 and 77 limiteds are excellent according to everyone, only negative I can find is slow focusing. Does anyone have experience with these lenses on the K10D and the focus speed resulting from that combo? Is it really a problem, or just a ‘in a perfect world it would be a little faster’ issue?
The 70mm is reported to be almost as good is the 77, does anyone know of a side by side shot of the two lenses? How much is the size difference with the hood?

Anything else I should know about Pentax primes?

Thanks everyone, Nick

And one stop difference means that double the amount of light enters the lens at f2 compared to f2.8... that is a HUGE difference. In my opinion, zoom lenses are not for indoor use, not even a 2.8. I'd would advice using a prime for indoors and a less bulky f4 zoom for outdoors.

Best, Nick
