- Until Lightroom and Camera Raw are updated for the K20D specifically, they cannot directly operate on K20D PEF files.
- The only way to transfer Pentax Photo Lab adjustment to Lightroom is to render the RAW file as a TIFF or JPEG. - Again, until LR and CR are updated, they have no calibration tables for the K20D. I read on one of the Lightroom forums that the K20D produces DNG files with calibration metrics that are way out of wack from the normal range. If you want to email to my Yahoo account a representative DNG or two ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), I would like to fool with the K20D calibrations in Lightroom. Or put a couple on a web server somewhere and let me know the URL.
