K-3ii half press feedback
CHEERS Vic.
Or is the only tactile 'click' you feel when you actually press the shutter release button fully? - This is what I'm experiencing with the K-3ii body, I push the shutter button, it seems to have some travel, autofocuses, then a single click which takes the shot. As a result it feels a bit 'spongy', but if that's correct then I can get used to it.
note. 'click' is probably a strong word to describe the action.
CHEERS Vic.
I wonder if any shops down my way might have a K-3 I can play with in store and double check. As I say, it's a not a massive deal, just different, but if it is wrong I'd rather get it sorted whilst in warranty.
I use back button af but have found on k3ii I have to half press the shutter button to activate the back button, can't find any way to change this. Anyone have any ideas? Sure K5 didn't need to do this
Kind regards Pete A

I use back focus button all the time.
In the camera menue 4 ,under button customization, AF2 allows the back focus only. top AF button inoperative other than for taking the picture

Yes that's what I was trying to describe, the body doesn't seem to do this, I don't feel any resistance at all, its completely soft until the usual resistance I would expect to release the shutter. Which is different to the battery grip, which does have to 2 definite resistance points.

Recently purchased a K-3ii but I've noticed that the shutter button seems to have no tactile feedback when being pushed half way, I'm pretty sure my K-X did and the battery grip I'm using does so I've been used to more of a 2-step feel with it, It just seems completely soft all the way until you actually press the button to release the shutter.
Just wondering if this is a normal feature of the K-3ii or is there something wrong?
It doesn't actually seem to causing me any problems as AF is working fine.
If anyone has a K-3/ii could they try it and let me know?
Thanks.
Paul.
