I just called a list member who works in a nearby camera shop and asked about this. He had a couple of K100D's and said it works the same way the earlier iterations (DS/DL) work. Plus, you can set the focal length of each lens for the best shake reduction results.
I'd planned to go see the K100D tomorrow, but the store has already sold out of their first batch of cameras - admittedly a small batch. Word is that when SR is mentioned people get real interested in the Pentax, and when John shows 'em some big prints, they're sold. There seems to be little or no resistance to the fact that the K100D is "only" 6-mpx. The results speak louder than hyping 8- or 10mpx. John will notify me when the next batch of K100D's arrive, and perhaps I'll have a chance to use one for a few hours and do up a little report, which is what I hoped to do tomorrow Shel > [Original Message] > From: J.
