Bleached out Clouds
( - 6/6/05)My major problem with the Pentax *ist D is the sky. If there are clouds or a light gray sky I always get an unusable result. The sky is completely washed about in the highlights and often a light cyan is evident around these burned out areas. Also, I find colours are somewhat washed out compared to other digital cameras or to film cameras.
