We were talking a lot about *istD improvments that could be done via firmware. And if Pentax USA is to be direct Pentax subsidiary soon we could put together our wishes and send them a letter which hopefully would travel to Pentax design headquarters in Japan too. What do you think? Is there anybody in the USA who would be kind enough to write summary letter and send it directly to Pentax USA? Anyway here is my short wishlist of what could be done via firmware upgrade: - blinking highlights wanring - histogram displayed in quick review - mirror lock-up in 3 sec. IR remote control mode - bulb mode for IR remote control (first press of button opens shutter, second closes it) - direct ISO selection - by just pressing "trash" button and rotating one of the control wheels with viewfinder indication (don't we just change this iso often? ;-) - direct manual WB metering - that is - I would prefere to just press this small button and make *istD to meter WB without need of using shutter release button, or at least AF shouldn't be engaged for this operation! Now it is annoying that to meter WB you have first to lock AF (difficult on white surface ;-) or switch to MF... Well, that's what would work for me. Anybody else? :-)
