i hope the sounds out of sync.. or if it isn't then why does it carry on shooting after you've let go of the shutter release?

[nathanever82]

no it's not out of sync. It works absolutely fine actually! The shutter speed was set on 1/4000 of a second, and the function "continuous shooting" allows you to keep on shooting different frames without releasing the shutter button. This means that the camera registers how many shots you want to take in the period the button is pressed -

[nathanever82]

If the shutter speed is very high, the camera will record a certain number of shots and will continue shooting after the button is not pressed anymore.

Cheers!

i don't know that did I understand it wrong or not...

people who are saying that k10d's JPEG-s

are soft are just stupid or never touched this camera before, for me...

sharpening of JPEG's is the feature

of entry-level cameras (and all of olympuses)

for me non-sharpening of the image is the feature

of semi-/profesional cameras,

i think that because of that k10d stands out

of D80/D200 and few canons...

[DjDwizz]

the softness is not a problem, thats just the default setting change it to bright mode and its fix, remember when they do reviews they dont change anything, any Dslr you buy you will change the setting somehow, BUT when you use raw on this camera it blows away the Nikon D80 and Canons 30D and its cheaper. So image issue is just plain stupid.

i am very happy that non of my canons sound like i nail gun!!!!!!!!!

ITS A TRAIN!!

I don't feel like I can do more than 8 shoots at a time with continuous mode. I'm shooting in RAW 10mpx. After the first 8 shots I have to wait about 2-3 seconds for another one.

I don't really know what you're talking about as I can't seem to find the post you're replying to.

But 72 PPI or 10.000 PPI doesn't matter. It's the number of pixels that matter, unless you're talking about printsize of course.

People talking about 72 PPI for screen size are also talking about stuff the clearly don't know what they're talking about. PPI doesn't matter for screen size. ONLY print size.

ok...

thx for explaning then ;D

[DubiousDrewski]

And by the way, it's often image editing programs that fill in the dpi field in exif data, not the cameras themselves.

[DubiousDrewski]

That doesn't change anything. There is a spot in Exif data for dpi, but it's a completely irrelevant number in every way possibly up until the moment you print.

The Exif data could say the picture is 72dpi or 2 dpi and the picture would be physically identical in content and size. It's only the printer that deals with a physical measurement such as an inch.

[pdf101]

check the exif then...

[DubiousDrewski]

"jpegs from K10D are only

72ppi/inch..." That doesn't make any sense. No camera records in dots-per-inch, they record X dots by X dots and that's it.

DPI is a setting in your printer and that's it. It has nothing to do with the cameras themselves.
