I leave shake reduction on all the time. (It's a menu item on the K-7.) I did the same on the K20, for the most part. The cameras don't seem to care. Paul On Oct 6, 2010, at 5:20 AM, eckinator wrote: 2010/10/3 Steven Desjardins drd1...@gmail.com: One question for those who might know.

Really nice. Monopods work better than many give them credit for. I bet they would be even better with a a remote shutter release. One question for those who might know. You turn off SR with a tripod. How about a monopod? On Thu, Sep 30, 2010 at 4:18 PM, Theodore Beilby tbei...@sbcglobal.net
