Comparing that K100D versus a K20D by taking photos of flowers.  Who'd do such 
a thing?
That's a question I dare not ask myself.

That's some pretty impressive stuff from both bodies. I've always been really impressed with the K100D's IQ, and there's just something intangible about the images it produces -- a certain subtle quality that I always felt was absent from my K-x's images. I still haven't been able to quantify it.

(imgp = k100  lrc in the file name = k20)

Thanks for the reminder, Frank! ;)

I think the second one was a little more color-faithful to the outer petals. 
The first shot probably would have been closer, but I have the saturation 
cranked down a bit on the K100D to help preserve detail. I may have gone just a 
little too far.
Exposure looks a bit different between the two.    You can't do a fair 
comparison between the two without using the same lens.
That's very true. I guess I wasn't really going for a head-to-head test at the time, but when I pulled the images off the cards, I was really pleased with the K100D's images compared to the K20D's, especially given the disparities between them, both in the glass (zoom at full reach vs. 50mm prime) and the resolution (6Mp vs. 14Mp). So, I couldn't help making the comparison.

I just really enjoy shooting with both of them.
