You must be using a long lens. If not, then unweildy_behemoth = 1 Just judging by the necessity of the seated position, ricebag, and MLU for stability when shooting at 1/125th. Otherwise you'd be firing away one-handed at a dead run. <VBG>

On an > non-MLU camera there will be no switch. to add to this: On the left side of the mirror box (same side as shutter speed knob) you will see the lens mount catch-switch which is aligned horizontally. If there is MLU, a similar switch will be located on the righthand side, but it will be aligned vertically - this is what to look for, a switch on each side :^) Bill, who often will just sit down on the ground w/ the 6x7 in the lap (w/o prism) on the ricebag, frame up the shot and use the MLU at a 1/125th or faster shutter who amongst us still dare say the 6x7 be "an unwieldy behemoth"? - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
