I'm not old and I'm not always cranky, and I don't really have the definitive
answer for all K bodies :)
The K2 definitely has a stepless shutter as it's electronically controlled. In
"auto" mode the shutter is fully stepless as it's controlled in analog fashion
from the light meter. In manual you're limited to the usual speeds. The only
speeds you can set without a battery are B, X (1/125) and 1/1000.
