Clearly we are not all agreed on what constitutes good design, but I for one, really like it.

Pentax K-01 studio test shots published
Just posted: Pentax K-01 studio sample shots. We're in the process of running a production K-01 through our studio tests, so wanted to present the results of our standard test scene. The K-01 fits a lot of the excellent K-5 into a somewhat avant-garde mirrorless body. Retaining a similar 16MP APS-C sensor to the K-5, we expect great things from it, in terms of image quality, so does it live up to those expectations?
Click here to read our hands-on preview
These test shots are also available from other reviews and the standalone tool, which can be accessed via the 'Review Comparison Tool' link in the Reviews menu on any page of the site.
We've replaced the Raw shots from the K-01, having discovered an error in the Noise Reduction settings used to originally process them. We apologise for the mistake and any confusion caused.

The black and silver K01 is a really cool looking camera, I want one to back up my K5. The image quality is great and the focus peaking function will give me an edge with all my sensational old Pentax glass. ;)
WOW, that's one really BUTT-UGLY camera... not retro, not modern, just plain UGLY.
Seriously: did someone really get paid for designing this awful-looking crap or is it just the CEO's dumb cousin who needs some credits to show his 'artistic talent'?
DPreview wrote: "the K-01 is a contrast-detect camera in a system designed for phase-detection autofocus, a combination that has rarely resulted in great AF speed".
Nikon has a sensor capable of phase-detection AF. Will Nikon make a mirrorless camera like this Pentax K-01, except that it would use phase-detection AF, so that it could mount the existing Nikon lenses, and have a fast AF?
How long before they will get the idea? (or, maybe are they working already on it?)
Perhaps the Nikon sensor is only feasible in the Nikon 1 sized sensor? Pentax could also go the semi transparent mirror idea that Sony uses. The fact they didn't means they designed this from the ground up thinking it would ideal for manual focus lenses that people have (they did include focus peaking)...or the other options were not really options for one reason or another. If manual focus was their plan, I can't believe they didn't plan on an EVF option.
Um, that semi-transparent mirror impedes light and makes low light work more difficult; it's only a neat trick up to about ISO 1600.
No matter what Sony claims.
As for phase detection, perhaps Fuji doesn't want to build that kind of sensor and then sell it to Ricoh-Pentax for use in the competition. And this K-01 is definitely competition for the X Pro1.
But doesn't phase detection require another sensor which is not the image sensor itself?
DSLRs and SLTs have a separate AF sensor, but it's possible to build phase detection sensors into the image sensor. Fuji uses that technology in some of their compacts, and Nikon in the J1/V1.
Fuji isn't the only company with that kind of technology. The Nikon 1 sensors are manufactured by Aptina, who certainly would make such sensors for anyone willing to pay. Of course, the specific sensor design used by Nikon is probably a Nikon patent, and not available to anyone else.
Pentax has an amazing RAW (and JPEG has a matter of fact) engine on their cameras since the K-x (and switch to sony sensors), but after seeing the level of detail the new 24MP sensors are capable of, I won't be cashing in for anything less (High ISO can bite me, I seldom go anywhere north of ISO 1600...)
Regarding the K-01, I think Pentax didn't went far enough (I actually like the looks of it), If the point was making am entire different camera they could've gone for a cube look or something like a cross between a video cam and a Lytro... Not having a swivel screen on a non OVF cam is a deal-breaker, they could've capture a huge following if they just tried to make a more forward thinking video/stills camera, and leaving room on their line up for a conventional K-r successor...
what is the advantage this Pentax mirrorless camera has over the Pentax DSLRs ???
Yes, it has one advantage.... It looks like a baby toy.
You can share this toy with your baby.
Weight. Size. Price. I guess reliability should be better too with fewer parts.
It was not a bad choice to reuse the same lens system as in their DSLRs compared to Sony/Samsung/Fuji trying to build new systems from scratch, with no advantages in terms of size and weight (as they have to cover the same-size sensors). The advantage for customers is apparent: their first mirrorless body, and the system is bigger than any other mirrorless system already. Plus if you are their DSLR customer, you don't have to re-buy all the glass again or try to work through adapters which are never really satisfying. Milking the customers for all-new glass would be probably more profitable though, in the off-chance they all would not leave for m43/Nikon 1/whatever.
they have seen the future and it is mirrorles. toe in the water and educating their rather small audience of loyal buyers into the shape of non whippy-uppy things to come imho
simple, no mirror shake let you capture better lowlight shots, combined with high iso capability and high iq 35mm lenses made this baby a powerfull "image toy". the advantage of range finder is no the size, it se smooth shutter they have, excellent for night shooting. on other hands inside space let design more compact lens that extence optics to the inside.
@peevee1 Using a new shallow lens mount has a huge size advantage over legacy DSLR mounts, most mirrorless cameras with a fast pancake prime mounted virtually fit inside the space that the K01 body takes up alone, and wide angle retrofocal DSLR lenses are much larger with worse IQ.
What's wrong with having an adapter? Then you get the best of both worlds, access to all legacy lenses plus new compact lenses.
There is also the problem that, size aside, the ergonomics of the camera are terrible (the mode dial being impossible to use with one hand etc), I'm not sure Marc Newson knows much about cameras...
"Using a new shallow lens mount has a huge size advantage over legacy DSLR mounts"
Size advantage for the bodies, but not for the lenses. And there is no point of making bodies too small/light in comparison to the lenses, it just makes the whole system unbalanced in the hands or on a tripod.
Ergonomics is a totally separate subject, but it should be understood that k-01 is not in the class of NEX-7/E-M5/X-Pro 1, it is one notch down for mostly P&S operation.
"Size advantage for the bodies, but not for the lenses. "
Any lens under 40mm benefits greatly from a shorter lens mount because the lens no-longer has to be so retrofocal, just look at the difference between the Panasonic 4/3rds 25mm f1.4 and the m4/3 25mm f1.4, as well as how small the 14mm f2.5 and 20mm f1.7 lens is compared to similar DSLR lenses.
Perhaps you're just thinking of the large Sony E-mount lenses?
Nice at low ISO, but the noise structure at high ISO looks extremely "cooked" and unpleasent to my eyes. There seems to serious raw processing in use.
I wouldn't use this camera to get B&W film grain look.
These test show clearly the K-01 as the pinnacle of IQ for a mirror-less camera, equal or better than most APS-C DSLRs. The two Fujis, X-Pro1 and X100, NEX-7 and now the K-01 are as good as it gets IQ-wise in this class of camera.
Quite frankly i think that both Fujifilm's X-Pro 1 & X100 are grossly exaggerated... I mean don't get me wrong, they're both very good... which should be able to satisfy even the most discerning of critics... but definitely nothing "class leading" about either of them...
In JPEG, the Sony NEX 5N is the epitome of IQ excellence... When it comes to RAW... despite the fact that Pentax does manipulate the final output... i'd still say its an extremely close contest between Pentax, Canon, Nikon & Sony... with none of them being significantly better than the other...
Sadly, having read reviews elswhere, I must admit that I've already made up my mind on this one. If they are to be believed (and why not?) the killer for me (well, lack of EVF apart) is 'noisy, slow autofocus.'
Such a shame. Still, it may not be a problem for everyone, and just maybe DPR will see things differently.....
Any comments from dpreview team regarding shot-shot speed (assuming instant review is turned off)? I dont have any hopes on tracking as none of the CDAF cameras do a good job on that
If K-01 can shoot similar to LX-5 in terms of operational speed, K-01 will be a decent package compared to NEX/ M43 given the APS-C sensor quality, smaller compact primes availability
"Oops," says DPR. Just a minor error in methodology. The funny thing is that even after correcting the error, the K-01 raw files still look cleaner and sharper than those from the K-5 and Nex 5N. Also better than the OM-D's, but not by much up to ISO 1600.
I would be pleased if Pentax were to put this sensor with 14bit processing and some AF improvements into a K-5S. Very pleased, indeed.
Pentax is still applying more RAW NR to files. More than K-5. See dxomark
But in fairness I don't see any additional loss of detail, (compared to the K-5), so they appear to have improved the NR algorithm without impacting on IQ.
Let me add my vote to the beauty contest too: E-M5 + the hump - ugly; K-01 - OK.
And now that I got it off my chest: I do not buy camera to look at it.
K-01 is interesting in a way: with minimalistic controls it is definitely somewhat retro in its appeal to basics. But they have managed to resurrect the poor ergonomics (aka: no grip and heavy body) of the retro cameras too. That IMO is a step backward in the wrong direction: it is a great deal to me that many modern mirrorless cameras can be operated mostly with one hand.
Pentax has experience in manufacturing pancake lenses, so not all is lost - to the fans. I personally do see myself buying a large camera of that type. Two niches interest me at the moment: bit largish DSLR for big lenses/OVF/swivel LCD and smallish always-with-me walk-around camera with a pancake.
I give up on dpreview ... wheres the new NEX-CF3 news???
I get all my camera news from Engadget now ... shame on dpreview, oh how the site has changed!
(Sorry for posting here ... but where else?)
Dpreview has always had a policy of not reporting on cameras before they're released. Sony hasn't released a camera called the NEX-CF3, so we haven't reported on it.
But dpreview did report the RUMOR CAMERA recently , please check again
"shame on dpreview" for honouring embargos and thereby maintaining strong and mutually trusting relationships with manufacturers.
"strong and mutually trusting relationships with manufacturers"? lol, is that supposed to clarify your independence and trustworthiness?
@ageha: all serious publishers follow embargos, they are contractually obligated to do so in order to maintain a good relationship with the brands whose products they cover.
Only blogs who want brief moments of spotlight break embargos. If you trust someone who breaks contracts more than you do someone that follows them, then you should have your head examined.
The NEX-CF3 is clearly out there; and this has been reported by various other non camera specific sites. Its a shame then that dpreview don't have the gravitas/relationship with Sony to run a feature. As for dp's policy of not reporting on non released camera's:
a) since when (that hasn't been the case in the past)
b) maybe you should change this stance if you want to be taken seriously in the photographic world. It hardly gives the site credibility when it reports on things weeks after non camera related sites have told all
Can anyone recommend other camera sites that do report on future releases ... don't know about anyone else but I like the rumour stuff and its most helpful (especially to Panasonic buyers who find a new model released 1 week after buying the latest model!)
DPR doesn't run features on new cameras before the official announcement, and they never have done so in the past either. The new NEX hasn't been announced yet, and therefore they haven't written about it. That's why they ARE taken seriously in the photographic world, as opposed to all the rumour sites and non-camera specific sites.
@ chadley_chad: Stop your trolling here and go, fly a kite on one of those other sites you are obviously so enamored with.
The NEX HAS been announced; so I suggest you quit your trolling insults (I've been commenting on here long before you came to the site!) and stfu! I'm in the 'photographic' world and I no longer consider dpreview to be taken seriously .... This being the perfect example where dp don't ave the quodos with Sony ... and instead fill their pages with iPhone app reviews instead of reporting on what's new in the world of photography (released or not!) I know all about the NEX now, courtesy of other (non photographic!) sites ... Which was my point. If idiots like Francis don't like that then I won't loose any sleep!!!!
Actually, the NEX-F3 has NOT been announced yet. The announcement is expected to be made on May 17, together with the SLT-A37. Leaked specs are not the same as an official announcement.
Actually, the NEX-CF3 HAS been announced - to resellers not the public though. Either way, it exists and as per my first coment, it's poor that a dedicated camera website can't even make mention of it (qualified rumour or not!) whereas other non photo sites have ... Point made!
The lack of chroma noise in the K-01 sample is mysterious. My guess, based on importing both the K-01 and OM-D files into LR4, is that they simply forgot to check that the ACR Color NR slider was set to 0 for the K-01.
To see how the high ISO capabilities stack up in the "real world", I imported both the K-01 and OM-D ISO 6400 RAW files into LR4. With the Color NR sliders set to 0, both samples had lots of chroma noise. With the following settings, the two files look essentially identical in terms of both noise AND detail:
K-01: Color NR +25, Contrast +10
OM-D: Color NR +25, Luminance NR +25
I think the take-home lessons for me are (1) that the OM-D is completely on par with the very good high ISOs of the K-01 (and, indeed, with the best APS-C sensors in general) and (2) that the best RAW comparisons are to be made in LR4 itself with Color NR at default (i.e. +25), not in the DPR Comparison Tool where there is no option to compare the RAW files with chroma noise reduced.
Chroma NR is sometimes dangerous because real color detail may be lost, especially on red channel. Better to turn it off for comparison.
I simply want the OPTION to see the RAW files compared with Chroma NR set to the default +25 (in addition to seeing the RAW files in all their color-blob glory).
If they had used a M43 sensor and made the unit 1/2 as thick I think it could have been a contender.
Naw. To be a real "contendah" the m4/3 would have to be able to use legacy "champ" Pentax lenses without a special (and space using) adapter. Those lenses will fit on the K-01 as easily as (boxing) gloves.
Cy Cheze, the Pentax-to-m43 adapter is no thicker than K-01. :)
But the lack of camera communication, like need to set focal length manually so IBIS would work (imagine it with a zoom!), makes their use inconvenient.
peevee1 the pentax-to-m43 adapter costs money. That increases the cost of system. If it were free they may be comparable as solution.
I really fail to see how people look at the DPReview samples and make such clear cut statements about one camera being clearly superior than another. I can see differences between cameras, to be sure, but to go from those minor differences to declaring a winner is to completely eliminate the photographer and the rest of the photographic process. These studio tests are useful to get a rough idea of comparative performance, but they are well lit shots taken at one aperture with what usually amounts to the best lens in the system, stopped down.
These samples are a thin slice of what you can expect from a camera system with different lenses, in different lighting conditions, with different subjects. A useful slice, but not defining.
This camera won't move me away from MFT, but it seems like a useful option for people with a stable of Pentax lenses. If it makes Pentax owners happy, great!
Every time I look at DPR studio shots of mirorless cameras I find myself reaching the same conclusion again and again - "Nothing can beat NEX5/7 in IQ". Maybe DPR should "politely" exclude NEX from the comparoson ;0)
You might be stuck on something, Vadyma. Look at the blue Volkswagen in the studio with NEX-7 and you will see a sea of color artifacts. With JPEGs, raw, low/hi ISO. I think it pukey, and can only imagine how cars with other colors get sick looking through NEX-7, and to what extent this can be seen directly and what just subconsciously.
(I only have one Sony product, a PC -- good but not great.)
"I like the K-01 look and the really small pencake" - That's two of us!
Nice IQ. Better than the OM-D to my eye, and cheaper too. If only it had an EVF . . .
get a detachable LCD Viewfinder, and you have one.
I agree, OM-D has lots of noise at iso200. Also the colours look quiet flat at higher iso. I'm talking RAW here. Take a look at the Kodak colour graph and the lighter colours, especially reds are hard to separate. Too many people focus at high iso performance and they forget to take a look at low iso.
The lens on the Pentax is quite soft on the right side - compare the feathers to the E-M5, for example. Still, the ZD50 is one of the sharpest lenses on the planet, and 4/3rds lenses do maintain their sharpness better across the frame.
The Pentax does look cleaner than the E-M5, but it appears Pentax is using RAW NR.
You may want to consider a potential DOF issue, I can tell you that lens is pretty sharp too (tried both versions and currently own the DA 40mm Ltd).
The counter part to the ZD50 seems to be the FA 100 WR F2.8 who also maintains its sharp very very well.
It is true Pentax does some RAW NR coming ISo 3200, but it's also true the sensor it has is still better than the EM5's.
Not working:
In FF12, WinXP64, the studio widget does not show in the K01 preview.
It's fine in Chrome
Doesnt work in Windows 7 64bit with Firefox 12
Works in Internet Explorer 9 though
Works OK on IE but not Firefox for me also - W Vista 32bit SP2.
Solved (partially): DPR studio widget interacts badly with FF's cache system. After I reloaded page with shift-F5 (bypassing cache) it work fine.
Thats just not true.
I know the OMD has been well received but lets put it into perspective. It is not a giant killer.
As a K5 owner, I know that this 16mp sensor is capable of great results. Better than anything I have seen from the OMD yet.
But that is not to put down the Olympus. It is a terrific camera, but to generalise that the Oly is "much better" just does not stack up.
Compare them in RAW and you will see how the K-01 have better results than the OMD5. It´s also known that while the Olympus screen says ISO 200 the true ISO it use is 150, so the comparison could be no equal on JPEG. Any way, the Olympus to be an excelent camera, but for usd500 more than the Pentax.
Pentax obviously does heavy NR in RAW, at least in the chroma channel. There is no point to compare it to others, who do not (Sony does too BTW).
waxwaine, every camera manufacturer cheats on ISO value, not just Olympus. «The ISO sensitivity test allows a certain latitude, so for example a Nikon D4 set for ISO 204,800 is actually shooting at 139,250, according to DxO's tests, and a Pentax K-01 set for ISO 3,200 actually is shooting at ISO 2,724. Pentax's ISO setting might give the camera an edge in a comparison to a rival's ISO 3,200 performance, since the Pentax is actually shooting at a lower ISO with lower noise. But at the same time, other camera makers could be playing the same game...» That's a quote from this article: http://news.cnet.com/8301-11386_3-57415777-76/how-dxo-labs-tests-hot-cameras-like-canons-latest-slr/
At the end of the day will we see a difference at 11x14 or 16x20?
Photomonkey, that's pertinent. I own an Olympus E-P1, which is considered obsolete and noisy by many. Last March, however, I ordered my first prints, 30 X 40 cm prints of five photos I selected, two of them in B/W with lots of shadows and high contrast, one taken in late evening light with a tripod. They're near-perfect. No noise whatsoever, lots of resolution and fine detail. People overestimate high ISO importance. At the end of the day, the print is the ultimate test to a camera's quality.
@audijam: not sure you mean to be sarcastic or not, but anyway the article is there for you to read it and take your own conclusions.
Read this post from Andy Westlake:
@Edmond, VadymA, don't know where you are getting your idea. Past ISO3200 K-01 is cleaner AND is retaining more detail (or at least the same amount).
@peevee1, the image IQ is always a balance between NR and retention of detail. Even though pentax is doing NR, it is able to retain as much or more detail than competitors past ISO3200. Yes, I would like to do the NR myself, but I think K-01 definitely is the best based on these comparisons. But as photmonkey pointed out are we really going to see a difference in real life shooting, especially if you are not printing poster size, and if you are printing poster size, you wouldn't be using an image shot at anything over 200ISO anyways, and at the ISO even at a pixel level (assuming you are using a lens with exact same IQ) it will be impossible to tell a difference among all these cameras. more in the next post below
Played with the K-01 yesterday. Have to say there is absolutely no size advantage, the looks, well it is just a big BOX. I don't care if a camera does not look like a traditional SLR, but THIS, it was just plain ugly (the black version). Another thing is that the AF is pretty slow compared to a regular SLR, or any of the panasonic, olympus or Sony mirrorless competitors. Sticking with my GH2 for now and waiting for GH3.
WOW, this quote from cnet was lifted directly from one of my comments on dpreview. :) :) :)
@VJVIS :"@peevee1, the image IQ is always a balance between NR and retention of detail. Even though pentax is doing NR, it is able to retain as much or more detail than competitors past ISO3200. Yes, I would like to do the NR myself, but I think K-01 definitely is the best based on these comparisons. "
How do you figure that? After everybody (not only Pentax) did their magic, i.e. in JPEG, it is E-M5 who is actually cleaner. Look at 12800, say, the watch at the lower right corner. Number "15" in the date window is not visible on K-01's sample anymore, while still perfectly readable on E-M5's.
So, from Andy Westlake: "Sorry, this is because the ACR processing settings are incorrect for those samples, and chroma NR hasn't been turned to a minimum. "
As always, so called "raw" tests are tests of ACR and its operator rather than the test of the camera. Even at the same settings, what are the optimal settings for one camera will be suboptimal for another, and testing of suboptimal settings is meaningless as it is not reflective of the final product of the creation of the picture (JPEG sent to printer or displayed on a website).
@peevee1, you are right, at 12800 both EM5 and Nex-5n are more contrasty, so I guess they are the best. Still goes back to, will you see this difference in real life prints.
RAW comparison has to be done because all camera companies (with the exception of Olympus) suck at in -camera jpeg processing and it never gives a true indication of how good a sensor is. I hear you that the RAW setting have to be properly set, in fact dpreview states that they turn off the Auto setting as they know ACR tends to process images differently for different camera companies.
Either Dpreview forgot to turn off default chroma NR in ACR, or Pentax now officially cooks its RAW files at all ISO's and more than ever, rather than the previous smoothing that kicked inp above ISO 1600.
If the latter, it seems to have fooled atleast a few people already, into thinking it's producing better RAW files.
Checked the Imaging Resource samples and they show plenty chroma noise, despite the usual smoothing at high ISO. Which can only mean Dpreview forgot to turn off the default NR in ACR where they do for other cameras.....
There have been ugly cameras in the past, but this one really does take the cake. Others may say what they like about "absolute image quality," and it's not bad in that regard, but if the absolute in image quality came with a Fisher Price badge on it I'm pretty sure I'd not be the only one to shy away. Or "My First Sony" actually seems most fitting, looks a lot like my cassette deck @ 6 years old.
Others would say that its not ugly at all. You are no-one to decide whether this camera is ugly or good looking. Nobody asked for your certificate.
zxaar, ryansholl has every right to decide it's ugly, just as you have every right to decide it's not. What you don't have is the right to tell him he doesn't have the right. Nobody asked for your certificate, either, but this forum gives you the right to voice your opinion, just like ryansholl, me and everyone else.
Whilst it certainly looks rather odd with that 40mm lens on, it looks much better with a more traditional lens attached
http://i47. photobucket.com/albums/f197/leopold44/__IGP6909lower.jpg
@Familyogre: The yellow ones with 40mm look toyish, but the black and silver with SMC or limited lenses look great. If it had a swivel screen and weather proofing I'd buy one. They should do that with the next model.
Yes, but this one's designed by Alfred E. Neumann. I think that's what it said.
@jkokich, who is he??? He can only decide for himself. No-one appointed him to decide for everyone.
"looks a lot like my cassette deck @ 6 years old." - ryansholl
It's a simple rule - if you think it looks like a toy, you're too old for the target demographic.
Inversely, if you think the new Olympus and Fujis look like they're from a deceased estate sale, you're too young for them. ;)
This camera is ugly.
Then I saw it in person, and I thought to myself, "Ugly....and big!?"
Ugliness is in the eye of the beholder. I saw one of these on sale yesterday and I think it's ugly too. I think it looks boxy and mis-shapen when compared to other mirrorless cameras. The decision by Pentax to use the same flange back distance as their slrs is the reason for the shape.
This decision is a double-edged sword: while it allows Pentax lenses to be used without an adaptor, it completely prevents compatibility with a wide range of other lenses for L39 and M mount which can be used with other mirrorless cameras.
I think there is a lot to like about the K-01 but it doesnt quite cut it for me.Ii think the k-02 (or whatever they call it) will be the one to get.
Maybe if you take a 2012 Cadillac to the 50s, people should say that it´s boxy, squarish and with no back wings at all looks like a very rare car.
Old sad people think that new things must be as they knew.
As a designer I can tell you is the most interesting and beautiful design I ever seen since Hasselblad 500s. Specially yellow one, I want it so bad.
I really like the way it looks - largeness aside. My main issue is the lack of an articulating screen which, on a cam without an EVF, is unforgivable. As a result Oly got my money for the E-M5 even though I own a K5...
Come on, the thing IS ugly. Att least now we know it's got its brains going for it
The Pentax K-01 compact system camera has been selected as a Product Design 2012 winner at this year's red dot design awards in Germany. The award – the red dot – has established itself internationally as one of the most appreciated quality seals for outstanding designs. Clearly we are not all agreed on what constitutes good design, but I for one, really like it.
I really like the way the high iso raw files look.
The high iso jpegs are awful. They shouldn't have reduced noise any more from what they did in the raw.
Thic camera CHEATS, you can't reduce noise in RAW and still call it RAW.
The more measurebators obsess about RAW, the more manufacturers will precook RAWS. Next people will like how one camera performs in RAW vs another with buffer and FPS, and soon they will start throwing away mostly useless data or applying just a slight bit of compression, etc. Soon RAW will be the next jpeg!
This isn't new.... Both Sony and Nikon have been doing it for a while to their raw files. Nikon uses NIK software in their cameras since 2006, and Sony has their own proprietary method. Sony bent to public pressure and finally offered an option to allow users to shut that function off.
Here's a great article on the subjects from the measurebators themselves: http://www.dxomark.com/index.php/Publications/DxOMark-Insights/Half-cooked-RAW
All modern CMOS sensors have NR circuitry onboard and although this is a different approach, do note that we all have some level of NR in our RAW's and we still call them RAW's.
It's their camera, they can do what they want. Would you prefer to be offered the Red Green and Blue sensor data separately and interpolate them yourself? Perhaps just the stream of numbers and let you decide how they should add up?
Once you have viewable image on your screen from the sensor data, it is no longer RAW. Give it a rest.
@Dafffid - that's pretty much exactly what we're doing now. Getting a bunch of 1s and 0s and manipulating them.
I believe RAW is the scene you're shooting itself. Once the shutter snaps, it's already "processed", (light goes through the lens, into the sensor, converted to digital signal) so it's no longer "raw"
I don't get it. No chroma noise in RAW at 12800 at all? Yet they don't give 25600, and JPEGs are not that good at all? Something is fishy.
Actually, the widget does not work in the link, and the camera is not in the list on other reviews where the widget works.
P.S. OK, works already.
K01 uses even stronger RAW NR (that you can't turn off) than K-5. See SNR graph of K01 vs K-5 on dxomark.
The RAW NR starts at ISO 3200
Simple question: If K01 RAWs are so much better, why the jpegs look worse than 5N?
Are you telling us that Pentax starts with 1 stop better RAW, but ends up with worse jpegs than 5N?
Yes, K01 RAWs have less noise, but that's nothing more than applying RAW NR, as noted by dxomark,
And again, so what? How many people really care about that? Are photographers mathematicians who will incessantly look on graphs, charts and tests before looking at the final output to judge if the photo is OK? :)
So they're deceiving the customers, that's what. People relatively new to camera hardware, who assume that RAW means raw and untouched data, will look at these comparisons and conclude that the RAWs of K-01 look almost as good as those from the D700 and make uninformed purchase decisions. Other companies might be doing this, too, but nowhere near as much as done in the K-01
If high ISO NR was the only factor here, (you have noted that it begins at ISO3200), why does the K-01 have less chroma noise in the shadows even at ISO1600?
And it appears to have has less chroma noise at ISO1600 even looking at it next to the D4 and 5D III.
In any case, with any visible loss of detail being immaterial, I'm sure it won't be long before other manufacturers follow suit.
The point you say that other companies might be doing this too conflicts your saying that "So they're deceiving the customers, that's what". Was Pentax the first to do this? No? Then how come when other brands do it (perhaps before Pentax did), why isn't anyone complaining? What, internet wasn't there yet?
Any alteration, may it be .00000000001 or 1000000 or whatever to what the "real" raw file might have looked like, is already "deception" by the manufacturer. That means, everyone might be doing it; who knows what a "real" raw file looks like, after the sensor reads a scene? It's somewhat bad trying to defend something by saying "they're doing it less". If this is the case, then we are all making "uninformed decisions" like you said.We are all being "deceived", like you said.
i agree alizarine.
they are threatened by pentax and they're trying their best to discredit the company.
All data that is recorded by our five senses are heavily processed by our brains. Still, that's what we call reality.
Did I just see a 1EV advantage over the all mighty K-5? in RAW???
Pinch me!!!
Check out RAW @ 6400 vs the K5 at the feathers by the Volkswagen. Amazingly clean.
K01 uses even stronger RAW NR than K-5. See SNR graph of K01 vs K-5 on dxomark. The RAW NR starts at ISO 3200
Basically what I am saying is it's not " 1EV advantage" .. It's simply RAW noise reduction applied by default.
The jpegs (where both sides can apply NR) look worse than 5N
ET2 you must thanks lucky stars that pentax is not Oly, if they were oly not only they would apply NR in RAW they would cheat on ISO too. That way k-01 would beat the hell out of new D4 on low light. It would be best camera ever by now.
zxaar, look at EM-5 jpegs. They look good. That can't be said about K01's jpegs
ET2 sure jpegs look bad. Do you think none of us know how to use RAW data?? There are two things either you or user of this camera understands photography or not. If he understands then using RAW is not a problem. If he does not understand then it is very unlikely that he would be comparing jpegs with OMD5 and say geez these looks bad compared to OMD, I shall buy OMD instead. So moral of the story if you know what you are doing k-01 is not a wrong choice.
@zxaar: Actually, all the manufacturers except Panasonic "cheat" the ISO in exactly the same way - Oly was in fact the most recent manufacturer to do it. And there's no evidence of NR in their RAW files. But when a 4/3rds camera meets or beats the competition, there just has to be something wrong, doesn't there?
Seems due to a high noise reduction setting that shouldn't have been activated. Fixed now.
@ljmac, "And there's no evidence of NR in their RAW files" ------- all the manufacturers also cook their RAW files. Some like pentax does in a way that it is evident and they mention it too, some like Oly do it without mentioning. RAW cooking is fact of life. As far as where IQ of OMD stands in comparison to K-01, wait for dxomark to rank it, it will clear all the mud that is created.
lol, by the time anyone reads this, it'll probably be fixed, but I did Pentax change their name to Canon, and the K-01 to EOS 5D Mark III?
The JPEG engine has been improved significantly from the K-5. As a RAW shooter I would typically poo-poo JPEG but John Flores makes the point on his blog that JPEG might be the only way to go for burst performance. http://whatblogisthis.blogspot.com/2012/04/embacing-jpgs-with-pentax-k-01.html
My thoughts are very different from yours. The new JPEG engine is a texture/detail holocaust, but luckily the RAWs are amazing, much better than K-5, however, and no one will convince me otherwise, RAW NR is hiding under the bed...
Too perfect? you dont like it because its "too perfect"?
That would not make sense
Don't worry guys, I've developed the raws in UFRAW and chroma noise is where it should be.
So wonder no more -- that NR is definitely coming from ACR.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by 2
Rated 5 out of 5Â by S-Ahmad Unique
These are unique in that they have the Bengal Tiger print all over. Not your typical on court look as far as style goes...but they do command attention, and I can appreciate the outside the box design. What's still a constant is the fit of the Rose line shorts. Some may say that they run large, but I've always felt that on-court shorts should be a bit longer in length. So by my standard I'll say they are true to size fit. They feel lighter than some previous Rose shorts editions. And the solid colors are always a plus.

Victorian Ornate Long Chain Necklace
The long chain necklace was an essential staple of the jewelry wardrobe of almost every Victorian lady. Although a suspended locket or pendant often accompanied the chain, the piece was typically ornate to be worn with no additional adornment. This particular example is crafted in 9k yellow gold with intricate belcher-type links. Lengthy at more than 4 feet, two decorative open lanterns of gold provide contrasting interest in the visual "texture" of the long chain. Finished with the characteristic dog clip or snap-gate clasp, this late 19th century chain is a versatile addition to any jewelry box.
Measurements: 49 inches (124.5 cm) in length. Weight of 17.1 grams (11.0 dwt).
Hallmarks: 9 ct.
Condition: Excellent.
Date & Origin: Circa 1880 and is English in origin.

September 18, 2007
Prices for overall exports resumed an upward trend in August, rising 0.2 percent after a modest 0.1-percent downturn in July.
The price indexes for both agricultural goods and nonagricultural goods contributed to the August advance, increasing 1.0 percent and 0.1 percent, respectively.
The rise in agricultural prices followed increases of 1.4 percent in July and 2.7 percent in June. Higher prices for wheat, meat, and fish all factored into the August increase. Agricultural prices rose 17.6 percent over the past year.
Nonagricultural prices ticked up 0.1 percent in August after a 0.2-percent decline the previous month and advanced 2.4 percent for the year ended in August. Overall exports rose 3.6 percent for the same period.
These data are from the BLS International Price program. Export price data are subject to revision. Learn more in "U.S. Import and Export Price Indexes -- August 2007" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 07-1382.

The State Forestry System is Born
The War Years and CCC
20-year Forestry Plan
Turning Mine Lands to Forests
The Last 40 Years
Following the war years, the emerging "baby boom" produced a growing need for increased recreational lands and outdoor opportunities. In 1945, the Division of Forestry released a 20-Year plan for establishing a more adequate system of state forests and forest parks in Ohio.
The plan called for the creation of new forests and forest-parks. The goal was to "invest" in Ohio's future by purchasing 587,823 acres of additional forests at an estimated cost of nearly $7,000,000. Though never fully realized, the plan nonetheless spurred the legislature to appropriate an amazing $1.5 toward the effort.
By the end of the 1940s, more than 32,000 acres had been added to the system, and the following state forests were created: Yellow Creek, Shade River, Richland Furnace, Maumee, Memorial (at Mohican), Athens (now Strouds Run State Park), and the forest-parks of Hueston Woods and Beaver Creek – both of which are now state parks. State forests stood proud at 138,628 acres.
In 1949, the Ohio legislature was determined to unify various state agencies with natural resource responsibilities. The result was the creation of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). Of particular note was the consolidation of recreation areas under the newly created Division of Parks. The "forest-park" areas managed by the Division of Forestry were combined with the Canal Lands from the Department of Public Works to create a new state park system. All lands in five state forests and portions of seven others were transferred to this new division.
The remaining state forests continued to be managed for their original purposes: long-term forest management, demonstration of proper forestry practices, and revenue production. Recreation responsibilities were not totally lost, however, as state forests continued to provide areas for "back-country" activities.

(CE: 194a-226a) [38] Tetraconch. A tetraconch is a square or oblong room expanded on all four sides by semicircular rooms formed by a portico or open recess (conchas, or exedrae). The origin of the tetraconch is a matter of debate. Numerous examples suggest Syria or Asia Minor, but the Church of San Lorenzo is a fourth-century example from Milan. It is not native to Egypt, although there are a few tetraconch churches there, for example, at Abu Mina. The tetraconch provides a church building with a particularly rich interior structure. The inner rectangular room has numerous columns and usually a wooden roof. The exedrae are formed by the erection of columns. The eastern one serves as an apse. The external shape of the church varies. Most frequently it has a wall of concentric design, shaped so that an ambulatory is created between it and the internal columns, as in the East Church at Abu Mina. Areas of the external wall may be utilized to accommodate the side rooms required by the liturgy. The Martyr Church (Justinian phase) at Abu Mina, however, has a rectangular external wall.

Rated 3.8 out of 5 by 163
Rated 4 out of 5 by EM11 Great hotel at Malpensa
Very convenient for those wishing to stay near Malpensa Airport. Excellent hotel. Only negative is that wi-fi costs extra for use in the room.

Rated 4 out of 5 by birdryan a little disappointed
the only complaint I have is that when I asked about internet access they said yes 45 min free
when I checked out there was a 3 euro charge-- I asked why
the response was its free only in the lobby and first floor because you accessed it from room you were charged..i said never told this--they said sorry biy it is 3 euro..now this is bnot a large amount--but kinda upset not told about it..i tried to access but my tablet was not working well anyway so I feel completely frustrated. pleae note this is the FIRST TIME I HAVE MADE A COMPLAINT

It was a very comfortable stay at Sheraton Milan. Nice room and good facilities. Breakfast was plenty, but missed a little bit the real italian cappucino..

Rated 4 out of 5 by Martiniblanco Nice hotel but long ways to room.
The hotel is huge. It is quite nice but the cold in the corridors and halls was unpleasant. We had a room at the end of the hotel so we had to walk from elevator to the room at least more then 250 m. After long business day it was terrible to go that far. The service at the breakfast is almost perfect, the food offer is good. Rooms are clean and nice. Only two big minuses for cleanness: 1. For me as allergic person the mold on the silicone in the shower is unacceptable. 2. On the way to the room there were 2-3 buckets standing in the middle of corridor to catch water dropping from the ceiling. I think they have some massive problems with the roof at this moment. Though I think you can recommend this hotel because it is very close to the airport.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Rovermike Very poor service for a Sheraton
I frequently stay at this hotel and it never improves. It is convenient for one night or a few hours if you are in transit as it's location in Terminal 1 is the only positive factor.
The service by the majority of staff is very poor. Many promises made, but never kept. Service in the var is poor and you are kept waiting gorgeous ages. Breakfast is a joke. Whilst the choice and quality of food I'd good, it is usually hard yo find a table that does not shill have previous guests dirty dishes. This is the same every morning.
The reception. Area us very confused with 3 separate desks that apparently serve the same purpose. There is no controlled queuing system, so often people who have not been waiting at all get served first. Very frustrating.
I am not dude what the advantages of being in the SPG membership are, certainly nine at this hotel.
It is a very large hotel, which perhaps adds to the problem of the poor service and complete disorganisation. If it is your first Sheraton experience, it would leave you with a very bad opinion about the Sheraton brand, which is not warranted.
It found be such a nice hotel, but needs considerable improvement to reach that stage.

Rated 3 out of 5 by JimmyS VP Intl sales
The check in counter is way too slow. You need to really improve the service. It is the worst part of the experience.
This was my 3rd time to stay here and checking in is terrible.

Rated 5 out of 5 by kexxxey The hotel has comfortable beds
Very cosy blanket and pillows, after hours and days of flights, when fighting a jet-lag there was nothing better than jump into a hotel bed and get a high quality sleep.
Breakfast healthy options are great as well.

Once I accepted the strengths and limitations of this car I realized I had made a wise choice, although it took a while to get used to. With gas around $4/gal I have no regrets. And I don't have to play taxi for all my friends.

He plays on a non-football power with only a handful of NFL prospects and he dominates Va. Tech in the Orange Bowl.
I'm hearing all over the place about this can't miss prospect of the decade and talking about this kid like he is already going to be the best QB in the NFL.
I don't watch much college, is this kid THAT special? The analysts are comparing him to the hype of Peyton during his college career. Is he really on that level?
He plays on a non-football power with only a handful of NFL prospects and he dominates Va. Tech in the Orange Bowl.
Luck has literally everything you look for in a franchise QB. The size, the arm, the accuracy, the intelligence, the pocket presense, the leadership, the clutch gene...it's all there.
The guy isn't just the best QB prospect since Manning, he's arguably the best since Elway.
I dont usually watch the QBs and Luck is impossible to miss. He's a game changer and easy 1 overall prospect. think about the last few drafts, he's easily better than Newton, Bradford, Stafford and those guys all went 1. its a QB league and he's got what they want.
Va. Tech is another nobody that plays nobody. Today their playing Arkansas state and i'll. Bet Arkansas state stays close for 3 qtrs. Ryan Applin for ASU is a good QB, but if Va Tech were as good as they're touted then it should be a straight up blow out.
As for Luck, he's no Elway or Marino, but he is a good college qb.
Won't be better than Ryan or Stafford imo.
Do you watch him play, or just look at the box scores?
Luck is far beyond where both Ryan and Stafford were at the same point in their careers. They're not in the same class as prospects.
Luck is a 70% passer. The difference between him and other 70% college passers is that he's playing in what's as close as it gets to an "NFL style" offense in college football. He's also throwing to receivers that are physically outmatched by the guys that are covering them. It's sick. It really is.
70% passer against 100% nobodies. Yes, i've seen him play andhe has never faced a defense that was SEC caliber and that says it all. His passes are usually to wide open guys, he is not as accurate as Moore from Boise. Pac-12 sux since they stopped the illegal recruiting and pay scandals.
mike t
please get him and before other nfl teams losers get him
Guys like Luck are literally once in a generation prospects.
Unless you have a true elite at the QB position (Brady, Manning, Rodgers, Brees) then there is no logical way that you can pass on a prospect of his caliber.
This isn't Brady Quinn, JaMarcus Russell, or Tim Tebow that we're talking about here. This isn't even the Stafford's, Ryan's, Flacco's or Sanchez' of the next level. This is legitimately the best QB prospect since Peyton. Hell, arguably the best since Elway.
If you have even the least bit of uncertainty regarding your QB situation, then you would be a complete and utter jackass to pass on Andrew Luck.
He is great in the college game. Accurate and he really does have everything you look for in a QB. That being said, the NFL is whole new world. The difference between college and the pros, is EVERYONE is fast in the pros...EVERYONE. You definitely draft the kid. There is no way you pass him up. Let's see what he can do with the big boys.
Sparano will tank the season for the Phins get him and he will be fired for the abysmal season. The ironing.

Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw will reunite for the musical event of 2012, the 'Brothers of the Sun' Tour. The 19-date stadium tour finds Chesney, who consistently has crowds "eating up his every word and move," joined by "master showman" (Huffington Post) McGraw for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. "Tim and I have been great friends since we first toured together, and I can't wait to get back on the road with him," Chesney said. "He's one of my closest friends in music and in life, and I know this tour is going to be something special." "Our friendship was forged on the road, so it's going to be a blast heading out with Kenny again," said McGraw. "We'll be having as much fun on stage as the fans will be having in the audience." 'Brothers of the Sun' will be the first time in 10 years that Chesney and McGraw have hit the road together. The announcement comes on the heels of Chesney's massively successful 'Goin' Coastal' Tour, which blew away more than 1.3 million fans, making it the year's biggest country tour. A four-time CMA Entertainer of the Year winner, Chesney will be honored at CMT's Artists of the Year event on December 13. "Reality," Chesney's fifth single from 2010's 'Hemingway's Whiskey,' was shipped to radio in October. McGraw is a three-time GRAMMY winner who has had #1 singles in each of the last three decades - 32 in total - including the title track of his most recent album, 'Southern Voice.' His 2010 tour in support of that album was the year's biggest country tour. "Felt Good On My Lips," from his double-CD 'Number One Hits,' spent three weeks at #1 earlier this year. McGraw is also an accomplished actor, having starred in films such as the Oscar-nominated blockbuster 'The Blind Side' and the critically acclaimed 'Friday Night Lights.'

The Circle of Art is a prime example of what happens when community-focused artists and professionals come together. Now in its 7th year, this fundraising collaboration between the Bowe family (owners of Dexter & Saline Picture Frame Co.s), area artists and over 40 volunteers raises money for local nonprofit, the Food Gatherers. In a nutshell, this is what happens: artists donate small pieces of art and the Picture Frame Co. provides free matting. The art is made available for online bidding until the last, celebratory day, when the Saline Picture Frame Co. hosts an all-day silent auction -- and the highest bidders take home the spoils. All proceeds go to fighting hunger -- with the average winning bid for a single piece generating enough money to feed one child three meals a day, for one month. Over the past ssix years, hundreds of established and emerging artists have donated 2,400 + works of art, which have collectively raised over $100,000. Each year, the circle has expanded to include more of everything: artwork, volunteers, art lovers and money raised-- and hopes are high for 2011.

MORAGA, Calif. — It remains to be seen if Saturday's BracketBusters appearance lives up to its name for Creighton's basketball team.
What is clear after a 74-66 loss to St. Mary's is that the Bluejays haven't found a way to shake the troubling ways that threaten to sour what they thought would be a special season.
The loss, before a standing-room-only crowd of 3,500 at McKeon Pavilion, was Creighton's sixth in the past 11 games. To a man, the Bluejays say they don't doubt their ability to bounce back and still have the kind of finish that would secure the NCAA tournament spot that appeared all but assured five weeks ago.
Evidence, though, is mounting to the contrary, and Saturday's performance in the made-for-TV BracketBusters series just became another exhibit that can be used against the Bluejays.
Greg McDermott talked afterward about how the eight-point margin at the end showed that a couple of better possessions on offense and defense could have made a difference. In reality, McDermott's team spent much of the second half trying to eat into double-digit deficits that grew as high as 17.
"We put ourselves in a tough hole," guard Grant Gibbs said. "We played better in the second half, but they just outplayed us in a lot of the facets of the game."
The Gaels, who undoubtedly enhanced their postseason r�sum� by improving to 24-5, outshot, outrebounded and, many times, outhustled the Bluejays (22-7). They got a monster game from Matthew Dellavedova, the Australian Olympian who finished with 19 points, six rebounds and five assists.
"He was every bit as good as advertised," McDermott said.
Brad Waldow posted a double-double for St. Mary's with 12 points and 12 rebounds, and he also helped lead the defensive effort that made it difficult on Creighton star forward Doug McDermott. He led the Bluejays with 22 points, but was 7 of 18 from the field and had just two rebounds.
"It was great guarding such a high-caliber offensive player," Waldow said. "I thought we did pretty well. He hit some pretty tough shots in the beginning, but we wanted him to take tough shots.
"Most of them were 3s with a hand in his face. You can't do better than that."
Join the conversation on the Bluejays Today Facebook page. |
Five of Dellavedova's points came in the 8-0 run that St. Mary's used to turn a six-point lead into a 14-point halftime bulge. The Gaels scored on their final four possessions of the half while Creighton fell into another one of those offensive funks that are becoming commonplace.
McDermott missed a good look on a 3-point shot and then couldn't convert the front end of a one-and-one opportunity. Creighton's final two possessions of the half resulted in misses by point guard Austin Chatman, who finished 0 of 7 from the field.
Overall, the Bluejays shot 29.6 percent in the first 20 minutes. McDermott and Gregory Echenique combined to score 21 of the 24 points while their teammates went 1 for 13 from the field.
One of Creighton's hallmarks while rolling through the first two months of the season was aggressiveness at the start of games. In the rough patch the Bluejays have hit, they find themselves on their heels, trying to fight back after the opposing team lands a punch or two.
"We can't use that as an excuse, but it's something that has been happening," guard Jahenns Manigat said. "We need to start throwing the first punch, and then another two or three after that."
The final 20 minutes turned into a game of ebb and flow. Mitchell Young, who had made just four 3-point baskets all season, buried one after opening the half with a 17-foot jumper that pushed St. Mary's lead to 43-26 with 18:21 to play.
"He's not a known perimeter shooter and we defended well, but he hit those two," Greg McDermott said. "That's not something I've seen him do on tape the last five games."
Creighton battled back behind Echenique, who scored seven of his 18 points in succession, and Doug McDermott, whose three-point play got Creighton within 43-34 with 15:21 to play. St. Mary's scored the next seven points. The Bluejays got the deficit back to 10 on an Ethan Wragge 3-pointer with 13:02 remaining.
Four minutes later, the Gaels' lead was back to 16. Creighton trimmed it to 10 with five minutes to play, but St. Mary's pushed it back to 15 before the Bluejays went to a late press to get as close as eight.
"We're losing these games by seven and eight points, and that's two offensive possessions and two defensive possessions," Doug McDermott said. "If we could have those back, it could be a completely different game."
But with the clock winding down on the season, Creighton can't afford to keep coming up short on possessions. The Bluejays have two games remaining in the regular season — Wednesday at Bradley and Saturday at home against Wichita State, the team they trail in the Missouri Valley by a game.
"We just have to grind through it," Greg McDermott said. "We have a week left before we start preparation for the conference tournament. With a win on Wednesday, we have a chance to play for a conference championship in the last game of the year.
"We haven't had that opportunity the past two years. If you can't get yourself fired up for that, then you don't have a pulse."

It doesn't get much better than that, does it, you BRONCO-MANIACS? Wow!! 11 seconds into overtime and a 80-yard touchdown strike. Tebow reads the defense and Thomas does the rest. The defense was dominant and the O-line gave Tebow all the time in the world. Way to go fellas!!
Have to tell you a funny story. So all week I'm going back and forth with one of my very best friends who played 12 years with the Steelers and has two Super Bowl rings, Gary Dunn (pictured above). We both played at the "U" and played against each other in the league. He owns a hotel, restaurant/sports bar in the Florida Keys called the OV which stands for Oceanview, in Islamorada. Many of you have heard this name that read this blog.
We talked all week long about a friendly wager and right before the game we decide if the Broncos win, I get a dozen Stone Crab Claws and if we don't, I have to send him a 32 oz buffalo steak. Game on.
This gets a little longer. Game time, I'm at Valor High School for my 13-year old son's hoops games and one of our teammates' parents has a small portable TV set, so we're on the sidelines seated and standing watching TV/cheering the game on and the kids at the same time and everyone's laughing and asking what the score is throughout the first quarter and almost to the half. The basketball game ends and we hightail it home and watch the rest with the kids and family and I'm texting back and forth the entire game and laughing about Gary sending me extra mustard sauce and making sure he uses Fed-Ex and on and on, sooooo funny.
So the game ends and I have my son who (by the way) wears a number 7 in all his sports does the Tebow in the living room in front of our fireplace and I text it to Gary and he promptly replies with his own version in front of an outdoor fireplace they have at his hotel/sports bar. I posted it on my Facebook page and everyone chimes in within minutes. I also posted my son's picture below so check it out for a giggle.
Back to the action: I don't know about you but all week the backing into the playoff comments and the radio guys' comments about we don't belong, were ticking me off and I knew we had a pretty good shot. I talked on 93.7 with Mac and Doog on their show about how I thought we would win this game and you know what takes the cake? All the humble pie being eaten by all the commentators on TV that said it wouldn't happen.
I do have to give them credit though. I think they are having as much fun as we are in this victory. The O-E-O Teeeeeeeebow chant is hysterical. Gotta love it

4 Hold-Rated Dividend Stocks
Editor's Note: TheStreet ratings do not represent the views of TheStreet's staff or its contributors. Ratings are established by computer based on metrics for performance (which includes growth, stock performance, efficiency and valuation) and risk (volatility and solvency). Companies with poor cash flow or high debt levels tend to earn lower ratings in our model.TheStreet Ratings' stock model projects a stock's total return potential over a 12-month period including both price appreciation and dividends. Our Buy, Hold or Sell ratings designate how we expect these stocks to perform against a general benchmark of the equities market and interest rates.
While plenty of high-yield opportunities exist, investors must always consider the safety of their dividend and the total return potential of their investment. It is not uncommon for a struggling company to suspend high-yielding dividends and subsequently result in precipitous share price declines.
TheStreet Ratings' stock rating model views dividends favorably, but not so much that other factors are disregarded. Our model gauges the relationship between risk and reward in several ways, including: the pricing drawdown as compared to potential profit volatility, i.e. how much one is willing to risk in order to earn profits?; the level of acceptable volatility for highly performing stocks; the current valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's valuation as compared to its stock's performance.
These and many more derived observations are then combined, ranked, weighted, and scenario-tested to create a more complete analysis. The result is a systematic and disciplined method of selecting stocks. As always, stock ratings should not be treated as gospel — rather, use them as a starting point for your own research.
The following pages contain our analysis of 4 stocks with substantial yields, that ultimately, we have rated "Hold."
Ferrellgas Partners
Dividend Yield: 10.30%Ferrellgas Partners (NYSE:FGP) shares currently have a dividend yield of 10.30%. Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. engages in the distribution and sale of propane, and related equipment and supplies primarily in the United States. It transports propane to propane distribution locations, tanks on customers' premises, or to portable propane tanks delivered to retailers. The company has a P/E ratio of 60.62.The average volume for Ferrellgas Partners has been 245,600 shares per day over the past 30 days. Ferrellgas Partners has a market cap of $1.5 billion and is part of the energy industry. Shares are up 17.9% year to date as of the close of trading on Thursday.TheStreet Ratings rates Ferrellgas Partners as a hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its impressive record of earnings per share growth, compelling growth in net income and good cash flow from operations. However, as a counter to these strengths, we find that the company's profit margins have been poor overall.Highlights from the ratings report include:- FERRELLGAS PARTNERS -LP has improved earnings per share by 48.9% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past year. We feel that this trend should continue. This trend suggests that the performance of the business is improving. During the past fiscal year, FERRELLGAS PARTNERS -LP continued to lose money by earning -$0.14 versus -$0.58 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($0.60 versus -$0.14).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Gas Utilities industry. The net income increased by 60.0% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $36.37 million to $58.21 million.
- FGP, with its decline in revenue, underperformed when compared the industry average of 3.2%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues fell by 20.5%. The declining revenue has not hurt the company's bottom line, with increasing earnings per share.
- Powered by its strong earnings growth of 48.93% and other important driving factors, this stock has surged by 30.51% over the past year, outperforming the rise in the S&P 500 Index during the same period. Looking ahead, however, we cannot assume that the stock's past performance is going to drive future results. Quite to the contrary, its sharp appreciation over the last year is one of the factors that should prompt investors to seek better opportunities elsewhere.
- The gross profit margin for FERRELLGAS PARTNERS -LP is rather low; currently it is at 19.60%. Regardless of FGP's low profit margin, it has managed to increase from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, FGP's net profit margin of 8.83% compares favorably to the industry average.
