Shooting with a non-motorised lens in Live View can also be silent on the KP. The camera opens and closes the aperture according to some internal criteria (probably depending upon available light), ...

The change to a single switch for stills, LV, and video already happened on the KP. It's not new to the forthcoming camera.

Lovely photo, Dale. Besides your skill and dedication to capture this, it demonstrates the ability of the camera and lens to record subtle variations in colour and tone. Thanks. (P.S. quite a few ...

Yes, Composition Adjustment and Pixel Shift can be done together. I do it all the time. Yes, the camera combines the four component exposures to produce a pixel-shifted JPEG image, if that's what ...

"the PENTAX Real-time Scene Analysis System analyzes such factors as brightness distribution in the image field, the subject’s primary color and its motion with great accuracy and efficiency. In ...

Bob, I don't know how the camera chooses a program line when in Auto. I would guess that scene content is the dominant factor, not camera settings. It would be analogous to Auto on the mode dial: ...

Normal is a program line. Auto means that the camera chooses which program line to use (normal, MTF, hi-speed, DoF deep, or DoF shallow). In P mode, you can diverge from the program line by ...

I think it's already there: look at Program Line in the shooting menu. Options are Normal, Hi-speed priority, depth of field priority (deep), depth of field priority (shallow), and MTF. You don't ...

Yes, rmalbers, I have wanted to see Mount Asgard for decades, and finally got to. I'll never forget it. (And I do have off-site backup :-) .) Thanks.

Thank-you, Joe. I wish I had a more leisurely visit, for more creative photography (but an even heavier pack :-( ), but we were moving most of the time, and I had to work with whatever the ...

Thanks, Jetze (hope I spelled that correctly).

Thank-you, Miles. It is a remote place so there aren't zillions of photos of it.

Hi, Mike. It is indeed awesome and a great adventure. I am lucky to have friends who were great to go with. Thanks.

Thanks, Tom.

Thank you Steven. It's hard to get there, and the backpacking is difficult, too.

After the muskeg, much of the rest of the way was across moraines. Summit Lake (behind the aqua pool) The Weasel River and several landmarks. Mount Thor overlooks the valley. Mount Thor Approaching ...

Last summer I backpacked for 10 days through the Canadian Arctic Cordillera on Baffin Island, and crossed the Arctic Circle from the north. My group went through Akshayuk Pass in Auyuittuq ...

I believe that you have it backwards. This lens was designed by the renowned Jun Hirakawa of Pentax.

My 16-85 also seized up like yours, and I had it repaired under warranty. Later, my 55-300 PLM, under warranty, did the same thing while I was mounting or dismounting the lens hood, I think (or ...

Yes, I use the combination of Pixel Shift and Composition Adjustment frequently on my KP, mainly for macro and close-up photos of mushrooms, some results of which you can see at http://www3.telus.n ...
