For anyone using HDRSoft Photomatix for HDR processing:
I have contacted them regarding supporting Pentax RAW HDR where all exposures are stored in a single RAW file. The feature is on their radar now and they said they will prioritize it based on user requests. So please, if you use this software, let them know you would be interested in having this feature supported.
Thanks!

I think the larger hump is for the new rumored RGB sensor for metering.

Make sure the drives get spun-up for at least 30 minutes once a month and that they are replaced at least every 5 years.

If you are transferring files between 2 usb drives on the same bus, then you might see a significant boost from going with usb3.0. If not, you probably will only see a marginal improvement because the drive will be physically maxed out much before the usb3.0 limit. Also, if you are using Windows, keep in mind that it has slow file access in general compared to Linux especially and also OSX.

For quickshift lenses you can setup in the customizations the AF button to 'AF Cancel'. Then pressing the AF button will allow you to quickshift.

I'm a prime guy, so I say DA*55. I love mine almost as much as my Ltds. It's a great lens, good (but some what long) focal length, quiet and well built. My biggest gripe with having it as my only WR option is that it is long, but I'm not out in bad weather often and since I'm used to "lens of the day" prime shooting, it's not that bad to have to deal with. Sure I might not get certain shots, but I will find others.

There is no direct conversion. It's a function of the camera (input) curve.

I agree with SOldBear. I had the MZ4 but read up on the capabilities of both.

If you don't mind the used market, try and find a Sigma 100-300/4!

I don't know anything about shooting hockey, but shutter speed doesn't mean the same thing in flash photography. With a flash, anything illuminated by the flash will have an effective shutter speed of the flash duration which can be something like 1/10000s.

A DFA100 should be in your lens collection. It's spectacular.
