I said you should be ABLE to turn off the few second delay for SR. I didnt mean that its on all the time. I meant you should be able to activate it constantly when you want to and be able to shoot instantly if needed without any half shutter presses or waiting a few seconds to shoot.
Does the few second wait for SR start all over again if you expose a photo and/or release the shutter button momentarily? jco -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Savage Sent: Saturday, December 02, 2006 9:44 AM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: Some random thoughts on my K10D If you've got the camera switched on and it's swinging from you neck/shoulder etc. as your walking around, what's the point of having the camera constantly compensating for this movement when there is no need to. In operation it's not so bad. You just keep the shutter release half pressed and at the decisive moment fire away. Dave On 12/2/06, J. C.
