It then takes a moment to stabilize the image; stabilization is indicated in the viewfinder with a "shaking hand" symbol. If you fully depress the shutter before this symbol appears, SR may be ineffective, and my experience suggests that the image may even be degraded, compared to SR being turned off. Once you release the shutter button on the K10D, SR becomes inactive, and you have to start the cycle over again. My understanding is that on the K-5, SR remains active after your release the shutter button, for whatever (configurable) period of time the meter remains active. -- 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.
