Hand Grip Strap (NOT BATTERY GRIP!) for GX-10 (K10D)
Many thanks for that. As I widened my search I found various one and e-mailed all of the sellers of those that I am interested in if the straps will fit with the added 1" (2.5cm) battery grip added. Got one back that will but it is missing the wrest fixing feature but would do and got two others o...

Hand Grip Strap (NOT BATTERY GRIP!) for GX-10 (K10D)

Hand Grip Strap (NOT BATTERY GRIP!) for GX-10 (K10D)
I share the concern about attaching a strap to the tripod socket, something that was designed to clamp not take twisting forces. Ditto the remaining strap attachment being pulled in a direction quite different to normal. So I've simply adapted the standard neck strap. Doubtless you've discovere...

Difference between P and M modes in Kx
In P mode you just shoot, but you can alter various menu items to suit personal preferences. In green mode the same applies except that the camera now decides what sort of picture you might be taking and the menu options are vastly reduced. In these modes all you need to do is focus and compos...

Difference between P and M modes in Kx
If I want to shoot sport or do a long pose I use the Tv mode. It seems it's just easier to swap between controling exposure, aperture or shutter, so in the end you might just look at all the parameters before taking your pic, which is more likely to be nicer i guess..? For those examples have ...

Difference between P and M modes in Kx
woohoo just gave it a go. Still haven't figured out how to use it properly (not sure if i need to change e-dial or p program in the menu), but i found a MAJOR improvement over the Av mode. tested on my 10-20mm f4 - 5.6 setting my aperture to f5.6 at 10mm, which is one stop above --> now when ...

Hi, haven't spoken for a while, bought a samsung gx10 but Im afraid I sent it back, just couldn't get on with it. it constantly underexposed by quite a serious amount, and just didn't feel right, I have now bought a k100d with sigma 18-125mm lens so should give me a nice walkabout lens without too m...

just found out it doesn't take latest pentax lenses or something is that right? I think it needs screw-drive AF lenses. Any KAF3 lenses that only have SDM AF will only be useable in manual focus.

K20D - Clock
Don't confuse the two things :D Real Time Clock: requires some power to keep the clock 'ticking'. Usually they run on a very slow oscillator (32.768kHz) and require micro-amps of power to keep going. The memory registers that keep track of the date and time, as well as the electronics are all CMO...

Adjusting iso with K-r
...there isn't a manual available yet AFAIK. The K5 and K7 have an ISO button to press and hold, and additionally one of the wheels can be mapped to ISO. The K20D, and K10D could be programmed to map the ISO onto a wheel (either front or back) Whether a quick-ISO-change feature is in the K-...

Adjusting iso with K-r
The K20D, and K10D could be programmed to map the ISO onto a wheel (either front or back) Press and holding the OK button and scrolling the front wheel is also a way to change ISO with these cameras. Maybe it also works with the K-r?

Adjusting iso with K-r
The design of the K-r appears based on the K-x. You have to use the ISO button on the back. After this you can either use the back dial or the left/right buttons to change the setting.

Adjusting iso with K-r
Fwiw: I didn't grasp the point of Sv mode at first with mine but it seems the only way to get those finer resolution ISO adj numbers like 320, 640, 1250, etc. There are other ways. in the menu you need to set the EV steps to 1/3th instead of 1/2th and then you can set the ISO steps to match the EV ...

Adjusting iso with K-r
When hand holding in AV mode, I found it easier (on my K200d) to select 'Auto' in the ISO settings, and let the camera bump up the ISO whenever shutter speeds became too low. I did this because camera shake was a more likely cause of bad images than noise! The camera was very conservative, avoidi...

Adjusting iso with K-r
On the K-r I would certainly do the same, but I'd limit the Auto ISO to 1600 or something like that. When you must have the lowest ISO setting, e.g. for long exposures or tripod shots, you can flip back to ISO 200 as described above. Does K-r have option to do that? K-x only seems to provide o...

Adjusting iso with K-r
Just been having a play with the K-r in manual mode. I can click iso on the control pad and use the wheel to adjust it, but the iso value is not displayed in the viewfinder so have to pull back and use screen. Not the end of the world but seems an easy feature to have been implemented (you can chang...
