K20 sensor clean on start up
Oggy - I have been away so I missed the question about starting a car 3 times in a row. I do that when off road, it's not always wise to leave the engine running so I might go 10 yards, stop/start, another 10 yards stop/start. It's only the battery I'd worry about and since I fitted a huge tractor b...

I'm not quite sure what you're actually on about but no I'm not worried as I'm using the equipment within its design constraints and duty cycle. I'm not sure a diesel has any HT side and it's a very simple design which can trace its ancestry back to the 50s I think. Mike

I used the Shake on startup with my old K10 and that did over 50,000 clicks and never a problem. However i have never once used the dust removal on the K7 (2604 shots) as i have not yet had any dust that has stayed on for more than a few frames so don`t feel the need to instigate it at startup (Yet!...

I'm not quite sure what you're actually on about No apparently not, but please do not let that stop you. I'm not sure a diesel has any HT side and it's a very simple design which can trace its ancestry back to the 50s I think Possibly not, but taking a wild guess it has a starter motor which was ...

Have both the K10 and GX 20 set at this function without any problem. It would seem odd that both companys should build this function into the camera if it could cause problems and both cameras have been on the market for a few years now. If this was the case that it could cause a problem or there h...

My point is that the more times you use it, the less time it lasts, so why use it if it is not needed. My answer to that is that if a piece of dirt lands on your sensor, then (with sensor-shaking ON) it will be dislodged as soon as you next turn the camera on, which means it is less likely to become...

Sorry Mike still not quite there. The thing with fatigue failure (and this is not just the sensor itself - the whole camera is shaken as per Newton's laws) is that it is cumulative. The more often you use it, the sooner it fails. The concept of being within design criteria therefore having no imp...

In reality we will all have upgraded our cameras long before they reach the end of their service lives. Yes, in theory if you shake something more it will wear out faster, but in the context of the expectations for the camera it probably won't have any bearing on its life. Something will fail fir...

I have DR on at start up on both my K10D and K20D. K10D - 19500 shots and counting K20D - 10500 shots and counting Apart from a replacement sensor on the K20D (not related to the start up at all) no problems. Both working fine Now I have said it, I have tempted fate!!!!!!!

A little light reading - . Welcome to my world. In materials science, fatigue is the progressive and localized structural damage that occurs when a material is subjected to cyclic loading. The maximum stress values are less than the ultimate tensile stress limit, and may be below the yield stres...

You are quite clearly correct. I'm sorry I didn't realise this sooner. Mike

Oggy, "decent whiskey" is either a serious and unforgivable spelling mistake, or an oxymoron. G

Well, I like to keep an open mind, sometimes. Send me a bottle and I'll let you know if it's any good. G
