Pentax finally accepts the buy-out offer from Hoya.
Good news is they will continue the DSLR business with Pentax brand. So there should be no worry of no support in the near future. My biggest concern, however, is that good engineers in the Pentax may depart from the new set-up. 2 areas are specifically important: DSP and the optics design.
Let's hope for the best!

Photo Filter in Photoshop
I am still using istD, very slow in saving files, and tehrefore I mainly shot jpeg.
For time to time, I will make mistakes and need to save in Photoshop; just like the following example.
In a MacDonald brithday party for my son's classmate, I was using a diffuser covering my 360 flash and hope to get a better light quality. I was wrong. The power of 360 is too low and unable to override ambient WB. Since I use flash WB, here's the result.
So I apply photo filter in Photoshop CS (found in "image" --> "Adjust" --> "Photo Filter"), setting was cooling filter 82, 25%. Here's the resulting photo.
Not bad. For old guys who started photography in film days, we are easlier to understand photo filter than R-G-B color tunings....
