Here's a few shots taken yesterday and today with the
K10D.

All of these were shot in RAW. Some converted to DNG
in the Pentax software, some in the camera. I used the
AF-540FGZ flash for nearly all of them (and all were
bounced 90 degrees off the ceiling with the catch
panel up). ISO was mostly set to 400, but there are a
couple of ISO 800's and the one of the twins lying
together asleep was ISO 1600. Some of the shots used
flash exposure comp. on the flash which, in
combination with this camera, is a dream. The images
have not be tweaked except to crop, resize and apply
some curves in PSCS2 then converted to .jpg.

This is the first DSLR I've owned so it's all new to
me. I have to say I love the camera so far. The menus
are a complete no brainer. The camera feels good in my
hands. I like a bigger camera and have always felt
most of Pentax's cameras are too small for my hands. 

I used only my existing lenses. I bought the camera
w/the Extreme III card from B&H as I felt I wouldn't
use the kit lens very often. So, these images were
shot using the FA31mm LTD, the A*85mm f1.4, the
FA24-90mm zoom, the A50f1.4 and the A20mm f2.8. All
worked terrific with the camera (what a joy!). The
auto focus is great and focusing manually was also a
snap. I like the EV +/- button and adjustment with the
e-dial. I changed mine in the Custom settings to put
the Aperture control on the front e-dial and the EV
adjustment in back (in Av mode). Seems a little easier
for me.
