Pentax Life

Pentax have released a Mac version of Remote Assistant for K10D. This software allows you to control your K10D digital SLR (one or several at once) from your computer, to set ISO, WB, flash mode settings, use interval mode, timer release or bulb timer mode. Two installers available - for OSX 10.3 and 10.4. Your K10D’s firmware must be version 1.20 or higher.

More on software, OK1000 Pentax Blog have a short review of the latest version of LightZone - powerful RAW conversion and workflow / postprocessing software:

The “edit” mode, which is akin to adjusting and developing in Lightroom and Aperture, is so nice to use, so well planned, and so simple that it begs the question why Lightcrafts hasn’t been purchased by Adobe or Apple yet. Its “styles” section is used to quickly apply settings, which is fun, but the power in the application is in the exposure adjustment tools that let you really get into the nitty gritty of the tone curve by defining regions with the zone system.
