I use the bleep to confirm the the shot is in focus! Are you saying that this is wrong and will give me a false indicator in that i am in/out of focus. No, not at all, quite the opposite in fact. We're just commenting on the different ways people do things. All of them are correct. If it works ...

k10 d focus
That's very interesting as I tend to shoot under disco lights using manual focus. No split screen either... That is impressive. I've been very lucky with my eyesight (still no need for glasses even at my advanced age of {redacted}, and I've always had very good low light vision too. It's not as ...

k10 d focus
Like John, I hardly ever look at the green hexagon, and tend to use my eyes... I've resisted buying a split prism screen, partly because of the price, but partly because of the effect that these are reported to have on metering (and I have enough trouble with that already!). This raises anot...

k10 d focus
For very low light focusing I illuminate the scene with my very bright LED torch. I have been known to use it as a light source for the image as well. For star trails I'd just use the stars themselves as the point of focus - they will be sharper points when in focus.

K200D focus screen size
Check the Katzeye site, they have a list somewhere of which screens fit which camera. If I remember right the K200d is the same size as the K100d, but I could be wrong. Why do you want to know the sizes?

K200D focus screen size
If anyone has replaced their screen, could you measure the old one? I'm wanting to start a new screen for mine that is on it's way. Width,length and maybe thickness. Thanks

I think Katzeye should have the dimensions. I think they are the same as my DS.

K200D focus screen size
I can now report. Just for fun I tore into a Yashica FX-3 Super junker. It has a nice 45 degree split screen. Turns out it is 1.35mm thick, Pentax is 1.38mm thick. Cut the screen with the split centered to 26.24mm long, 18.02mm wide. Dropped it in, and perfecto. Dead accurate with the AF. Meterin...

K-m/K200D replacement announced tomorrow?
Wow. There were fantastic deals on the k-m in the post-Christmas sales earlier this year, when Pentax were running a cash back offer. If Pentax put together a real VFM Christmas package around these specs then this could be a super deal. I like the idea of AA batteries. I've found this v useful on t...

Sorry to steal your thunder Mike-P, but I knew about the K-m replacement a while back. Howver, I was not in a position to disclose the info. What a strange post. Why would it be stealing my thunder?, I'm not releasing the camera.

K-m/K200D replacement announced tomorrow?
You'll probably be able to order skins, like a mobile phone. Since I almost never use a focus point other than the centre, the limitations in this regard would not be an issue for me. G

K-m/K200D replacement announced tomorrow?
The more I look at these pics the more it grows on me. For some reason I find I'm really starting to like the yellow bodies (046-050) :shock: I think it might be a subconscious desire for that sporty walkman my folks never got me back in school...
