I tried testing processing times using a stop watch - big margin of error.There might have been a slight difference in processing speed between motion corrected and non motion corrected processing times when the subject was moving, but slight enough to be trivial. I tired all combinations - MC on, MC off, static subject, moving subject. Times seemed about the same though motion correction made a huge difference in scenes were things were moving.

Processing time per photo?

Now that I'm at a real keyboard....

Basic pixel shift is pretty trivial, just sum up the information from four exposures. Doing motion correction is pretty computationally intensive, you need to figure out what things moved, by how much, and how to correct them, across four different images.

Some of that can be alleviated by having a deep buffer, in exactly the way the K-1 doesn't. That way, you could at least take a few photos before the buffer fills up.

To test, I'd set up a scene, maybe a static scene with one moving element (clock with a second hand?), take a series of photos in static pixel shift and time how long it takes until the write light goes out, then try the same thing with dynamic pixel shift.

I've been looking around to see what is lost when pixel shift is set to

Motion correction mode and haven't found any information about it. It
seems that by giving you the option to select between enabling motion
correction or not, there must be some situation when non-corrected mode

is better, or perhaps even there is some overall lower quality when
motion correction is on...?

The K1 manual doesn't rally address the question, just saying that one
mode corrects for moving objects and the other doesn't.

Why is non motion corrected mode included on the menu at all?
