New K1 with a card format problem

Just pulled it out of the reader attached to the Mac. Have done this with K3 and never an issue. Maybe K1 is different.

Adam, you are right. That was the problem. Thanks.

New K1 with a card format problem

I have a new K1 and having an issue I am hoping you can help with. I take a few shots and load them into Lightroom from the memory card. When I put the card back into the camera it gives me a message that "the card is not formatted". The images are on the card for sure. I can format the card and can take more shots. Any thoughts?

I am a convert from Apple Aperture to Lightroom. I really like the newest version of Lightroom. I also use NIK plugins. They are great. Light to use the black and white tool (really good). Also use the sharpen and define tools. I would rlike commto no you consider the NIK set with Lightroom. The two will enable you to do almost anything you want.

Adam, thanks. The images with Bleach Bypass in the example you sent me look like mine. I do shoot DNG. So does the custom image settings have any impact on DNG/RAW?

Very nice. I am thinking about getting this lens. You really like it? Did you compare it to the Pentax lens when you bought it?

K3 Exposure Compensation Setting

Went out and took some RAW images the other day. They appeared very dark. Images did not look right. I did make some changes in Aperture and that helped.

I checked the exposure compensation setting. I usually have it set on bright. It was set on Bleach Bypass. Does anyone know what this is? What impact it has on an image?

Thanks.

Thanks to everyone for your comments. I have decided to use DNG. I think the fact that DNG is a standard used by many is a good reason to use it. The images can be used in the future if PEF goes away.

I have a K3 and use Aperture. I have been using dng and running it thru a converter to get into Aperture. Aperture has been update so I can eliminate the converter.

So which format is the best? What do most of you use?

Thanks.

I switched from a pc to an IMAC and switched from Canon to Pentax. Also switched from PS Elements to Aperture. A lot of changes. I felt that the Aperture was a great fit
with the IMac. And Pentax was a big change from Canon. When I bought the Pentax I had originally planned on buying a Nikon D7100. Sure glad I made the change.
