Has anyone else noticed lens resolution issues with the K-5?
A sensor that outresolves all your lenses doesn't sound much of a problem to me!

Who else are waiting for a firmware update for K-r to fix the FF problem
K5 is slightly different, the K5 has an extra sensor that "scans" the wavelength of the light and adjust it. So problems with the K5 and Kr doesn't need to be the same but can be though... But it's normal for AF systems not with the extra sensor to not have a correct focus under tungsten light, ...

My K-r also has a similar problem and this is in daylight not indoors. The AF accuracy is not great. Lots of my shots are not focussed properly. It appears to be much better in LiveView however. Initially I thought its just a shaky hand problem but a second and then third round of shots had similar ...

You cannot calibrate for FF at lowlight/tungsten My comment was on AstraNine focus problems under daylight :wink: only one calibration per lens is allowed. There seems to be only one global adjustment for the Kr. You cannot calibrate for FF at lowlight/tungsten light/halogen, only one calibrat...

Sensor cleaning?
Can you clarify. Is this spot visible on actual photographs or only when you look through the viewfinder. If it's on the sensor you won't see it through the viewfinder - if you can see it through the viewfinder it will be on the mirror or the focussing screen.

Whatever you do do not use a lens pen on your sensor :shock:. Invest in an Arctic Butterfly or swabs for sensor cleaning.

+1 for Arctic Butterfly in 4 years with a K10D only once have I done a wet clean thanks to mine.

I am a butterfly enthusiast as well, but only for dry dust. It will simply smear grease.

Eating chips in Whitby! (But pollen is the killer) Blimey, they must serve you the oil they were fried in as well then :lol: I accidentally got some saliva on my sensor because I was talking to someone while cleaning it. I shall not make that mistake again, damn 's' sound!

Wet swabs here. Intersetingly ( and probably tempting fate :) ) but I haven't had toclean my K-5s sensor at all despite changing lenses in all manner of dirty environments. K20D OTOH was always gettign crap on it the sensor

I confess I send mine off to be cleaned works out the same as buying the swabs and Im not confident enough to attempt it. Dont use the lenspen on the sensor though!!!! lens (its in the name )

Well to clarify its definately on the sensor (I dont understand though how it DOESENT show up in the dust alert picture). It shows up in my pics. And there is also stubborn dust on the mirror! I'm going to try a hairdryer on cold to see if i can blow it out.....wish me luck thanks for everyone'...
