Reason for me to suggest velvet was that I loaded the whole 1.7 Mb image into Photoshop and looked at it with 200% magnification. To me, it looks definately like some kind of fabric, and velvet was my first association. The dots are lined up in a curved (or maybe folding) pattern, and they are very uneven in size and brightness. Main point, I guess, is that the mottling is no kind of digital or optical artefact.
PS775 but it definitely looks like the texture of the cloth they used as
a backdrop.
I'm really impressed that this Pentax dcam image isn't that smeary-TVish look I've seen in samples from earlier Pentax dcams. I hope we get to see a wider range of samples soon.
