I've put the comment back as without it none of this thread makes any sense.

Reasons not to buy a K5 ii s at £350
It really is a great camera ... I sold my K-3 a while ago and went back to the K-5IIs. Don't regret it one bit and it's a bargain at that price.

Reasons not to buy a K5 ii s at £350
I wonder how long we will wait until the K3 is 350.00 pounds ? Are we to expect the release of the 'full sized slr' to depress K3 and K3ii sales ... Or will they not be in the same buyer category? Going back to this particular sale .... The K5ii has hardly run it's course at all ... It's not real...

Reasons not to buy a K5 ii s at £350
K5IIs; I am increasingly using my K5IIs In low light where it seems, in some lighting conditions, superior to the K3; having been shooting indoor court sports (no flash permitted) for an International Sports Village Gallery over the last few months, the K5IIs has become indispensable coupled with...

New camera shuter count, what should it be
I don't think shutter count is going to be zero on all new bodies but I bought a K3 in early 2014 together with a newly released Pentax HD1.4x AW converter; however on setting up the K3 it was showing over 130 actuations. Despite the camera being boxed up as new and received from a very reputab...

New camera shuter count, what should it be
Hi folk, any chance Daron of a link to the AF set up data please. My K3 has gone kerazy and the AF is about as predictable as buying the winning lottery numbers and guess who`s off on hols.............. I don't know if this post was the one referred to, but I really like this setup: I like t...

FF sensor rumors
Algernon, did I say I was moaning? And it what word in the English language did you detect moaning? It's a forum mate with open discussion about Pentax and one of the major discussions at the moment is the excitement for the Pentax FF. Anyway, interesting comments about the sensor. If it performs li...

FF sensor rumors
There is a certain irony in that. Meanwhile, back at the cutting edge, the new full frame lenses are getting exciting and if the new FF frame camera is as good then we'll have nothing whatsoever to moan about. :)

FF sensor rumors
pentax has the option of moving the sensor forwards and backwards during exposure to adjust focus for different wavelengths of light and merging the data to remove aberrations and increase sharpness for every lens ever made... just an idea... I dunno

FF sensor rumors
It's my understanding that no one moves the sensor in/out towards the lens, as that directly impacts on the focus point of the shot. Agree with the comments above about the cost of FF cameras. It will only drop as more manufacturers start using it. Presently 3 Canon, Nikon and Sony, but soon Pe...

FF sensor rumors
It's my understanding that no one moves the sensor in/out towards the lens, as that directly impacts on the focus point of the shot. Contax used this system on their only AF film SLR, the RX - probably because users having bought a collection of excellent (and expensive) Zeiss glass, wouldn't want t...

FF sensor rumors
I'm suggesting the sensor could be used to make a precise focus for each colour and merge the data to eliminate aberrations... ;) Oh right, got you now.

K3 II Continuous AF
Not withstanding our latest spammer trying to help I have had little luck with any of the complicated AF modes and myriad of permutations of hold AF, focus priority etc settings that go with them. Given there appears to be no official UK advice source on such matters we do seem reliant on stateside ...
