Pentax has released a firmware upgrade and several software improvements to support its DSLRs.
Version 1.2 of the K10D's firmware adds support for the new Pentax Remote Assistant 3 software, which allows photographers to control one or more cameras from a USB-connected computer. Remote Assistant 3 provides timer, bulb and interval-shooting options in addition to real-time control.
Pentax has also updated its Photo Browser 3 and Photo Laboratory 3 desktop software. Photo Browser 3.11 provides integration with Remote Assistant versions 1 and 3, and supports data from the Pentax DA* 16mm-50mm f/2.8 and DA* 50mm-135mm f/2.8 lenses. Photo Laboratory 3.10 adds native support for Intel Macs and improved white balance adjustments.
In addition, the company has released a RAW codec for 32-bit versions of the Windows Vista operating system, which allow Vista's Photo Gallery to open RAW files from the following Pentax cameras: K10D, K100D, K110D, *istDS, *istDS2, *istDL, *istDL2, *istD.
Pentax owners can download the firmware and software updates from the company's Web site.
