When I open imported K10D RAW files (converted from PEF to DNG on importation)

I'm a "start at zero" kinda guy, so this bugs me. I've changed the defaults so
Brightness is at 0, but then of course I'm adjusting the exposure or brightness on almost
every shot.
Does LR set the default Brightness at +50 for all cameras, or only for the
K10D? Does it bug anyone else?
Rick, I can't speak for LR, but as Adobe Camera Raw and LR seem to be
code-related this may help. ACR also sets Brightness to 50% by default
(and Contrast to 25%). I notice that if I change the overall config
from Camera Raw Defaults to Image Settings the Brightness setting
remains at 50%, so I'm guessing that it's the DNG file itself that sets
that Brightness, probably by way of the camera itself. BTW, I'm using a
K100D Super.
I just make the mental adjustment that for Brightness 50 maps onto 0. :-)
