You also see this difference in DR on the "have a Coke" box. On the K-5 image it's two shades of white, but on K-7 it look much brighter and this image is still darker in the ceiling.

Several observations: 1. Both pictures are 8 bit jpgs although the differences in DR of these cameras are very apparent. I am looking at the top part of both images - the ceiling. The tonal gradation of K-5 is natural, whereas K-7 really struggles. This illustrates well the point that dynamic range has very loose connection if any with number of bits per pixel in the output image. Apparently my understanding was indeed incorrect. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
