As a matter of habit I don't like to go beyond ISO 400 with the K10D either, but noise reduction software has come a long way.
NR in ACR and further cleanup in NIK DFine.

Fair call, those sample crops were unedited and the additional fraction-of-a-stop difference of 1/200th vs 1/180th sync speeds between the cameras may attribute to the washed out look. In any case the Pentax K10D gains a bit of DR with ETTR, the K1 not so much. Furthermore, as I said in the CCD camera thread: Neither K1 or K10D presented the subject or the background faithfully. But I will mention with the appropriate camera profile instead of the one ACR uses, the K10D took the least amount of effort to "correct".
The Final result: Pentax K10D - SMCP-FA77mm f/1.8 Limited @ f/8 ISO 100 1/180th |

I posted this in the CCD sensor thread: I did a quick comparison between the K1 and Pentax K10D with the Pentax SMCP-FA77 under controlled studio lighting, with Identical WB and processing parameters, images processed through ACR.
Yes, the K-1 was in full frame mode hence the slight difference in DOF.

I know, I was pleasantly surprised how punchy things looked with the K10D. With two images I had to de-saturate and hue shift colours so they would look believable.

It is interesting to revisit old work I have done on my still-not-dead K10D, using new processing techniques that simply didn't exist in 2006. K10D - SMCP-FA31mm f/1.8 K10D SMCP-K 50mm f/1.2 Pentax K10D - SMCP-DA 16-45mm f/4 |

From my still-not-dead K10D I've had since 2006 Pentax K10D - SMCP-A 50mm f/1.7 - ISO 100 1/640th @ f/1.7
And a cheeky Bee in flight photo, using the catch in focus technique was invaluable in getting this. Pentax K10D - SMCP-A 50mm f/1.7 - ISO 100 1/1250th @ f/1.7 |

No, I haven't..and even if I did I wouldn't pay any attention. I've done Bee in flight photos with the K10D too; Next challenge?

It is a curious thing that Integrated SD card readers on laptops seem to have a high fatality rate. My very IT savvy brother in-law gave me an expensive 14" i7 HP Elitebook simply because the SD card reader ceased to work. I'm not complaining though :D .

I wish CMOS cameras had SOOC raw colours like that. Caption corrected, thanks for pointing that typographical blooper out.

Edward Weston, a skilled photographer once said : " everything in a photograph is accurate, none of it is true" Personally The moment you photograph anything you remove it from reality and create what is merely a representation of it. Pentax K10D - SMCP-FA31mm f/1.8 ASPH Limited |
