Nope. But I've never found that to be a problem, and routinely leave SR on when panning with my K10D. There again, I can't find anything in the manual to suggest turning off SR while panning, either - just when the camera is mounted on a tripod. There was quite a lot of discussion of this around the time the K10D was released, both here and on dpreview. The general opinion was that the Pentax firmware seemed to handle panning situations just fine. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
