The price we pay for for faster and faster printers and 
coatings not keeping up with the speed on printing time. Makes 
you wonder if there's still some quality gain possible if you 
do the same printing slower.
My first impression on the Photokina was that the 3800 prints 
had a more analogue photo quality and I like the quality of 
the K3 models more. Could it be what you describe here or 
could it be the new dithering that gives that image?
