The OK Button doesn't only show ISO, in combination with the front dial, it sets it as well. Also a dedicated AF button allows for more control configuration options (Although not yet the one I really want, AF system disengage). I would like Pentax to follow the trend from Nikon and Sony and change the AF, OK and Exposure Comp buttons to true assignable buttons with a serious list of available configurations rather than just a couple on the AF button.
Dunno why the AF button isn't duplicated on the grip. It really should be. -Adam On 12/2/07, Derby Chang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Wondering out loud, and it is quite possible I have missed something. > > Why was the reset button for the AF zone selection moved from the OK > button to a separate AF button?
