Hi,
In the User manual we are advised to switch off Shake Reduction when using a tripod, can anyone advise if the same advice should apply to a Monopod wher, obviously, some lateral movement is likely during use ?

Hi, I'd also turn SR off for panning shots such as motor sport when I would probably use a monopod.

I generally hand hold with SR on down to a 1/15th second.

Must be different on the K5, page 141 of the KR handbook says otherwise

No idea, I tried it off once and it made no difference so have since always left it on .. K10D, K20D, K-7 and K-5.

Doubt the Kr would be any different tbh.

TBH I've never noticed much difference off or on.
