There are some rumours that Ned Bunnell (now President of marketing) has been using the new DSLR. Can't tell, myself.

...or put it in a savings account until the K20D arrives?

Might be obvious, but I thought I'd mention it just in case...

With the SR turned on, you have to half-press the shutter and wait until the little "hand" icon appears in the viewfinder before fully pressing.

If you jab the shutter straight down then SR doesn't have time to work out what's happening!

(Also, according to the manual, there are some modes where SR won't be enabled at all.)

And I'd agree... you need to set up a test scenario that is repeatable and controlled

I didn't know that

Paid about £75 for my Huey Pantone. Very happy with it. Don't know if the Spyder has more functions.

I thought that Pentax's market share was up since the K10D came out!

Yes, very. I think part of the problem is that a lot of people still think anything they see on the internet is "free" and "fair game", but just about everything belongs to someone, or was someone's brainchild.

Silkypix seems to have been bought by an American company, shortcut software which may explain why I haven't received any emails from Silky about updates, recently. Perhaps this tie-up will result in a less japlish interface and a Linux version.

Shutter velocity anyone?

Runs and hides.

I'd look at picking up a second hand DS which doesn't need modding rather than risk damaging the D
