Thanks a bunch, that will be extremely helpful. At the dance last night I had to turn the focus assist light off because it was too distracting to the dancers. I certainly plan on reading the manual. Including the K-r I tested for Luiz, I've learned K100, K20, K-x and K-r. K-x to K-r was the easiest shift. The K20 seemed to be a superset of the K100, and the K-x was almost a combination of the K100 and K20, but the K-5 sees to have the most changes from all of the others. Many of them are very beneficial, but they still take a learning curve, and time to RTFM. I also downloaded Bourque's K-5 manual, but unfortunately, that's a bit hard to read over lunch. I should copy it to my laptop. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- 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.
