Hmm, to do that I’d have to hold off reading the articles Paul suggested while I created and did the initial processing on comparable images created lenses that closer in quality on the two cameras. I could go ahead and process the images from the graduation ceremony created with the Pentax, then read the stuff Paul recommended, create virtual copies of a sample image or two, edit them insight of what I learned, and then compare the initial edit with the second edit. Overall, apart from that, I’ll try to work toward a fair comparison of the two cameras, e.g., using a lens on the Pentax that’s closer in quality to the Fuji lens. Probably my best Pentax lens is the DA 4/16-45. I also have an A 2.8/28 with which I used to get good photos, but I’ve been using autofocus exclusively the last few years that I’m not sure I’d know how to use it anymore. --------------------------------------------------------- Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA [email protected] "What does it mean...that the world is so beautiful?" - Mary Oliver -- 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.
