Can any of you get your camera in 1/20th and manual flash power? If so, how are you doing it? This issue is driving me mad(I've asked this question in the past, haha)
I can't get it the flash in M mode with rear-curtain sync, only P-TTL.
Might that be it?

You can use MF all the time or when AF overshoots go to MF and take the shot without a lock on.
Or with the situation you describe for portrait.
AF on the eyes - quick-shift to fine tune the focus - release the shutter.
You can take the first part away if you or the subject hasn't moved but you didn't hold the shutter to keep the AF lock on.
It's not a better way of doing it, both ways have their advantages but I personally like not to have the AF under the release because of the things I said here.

If so then the K20D or K200D aren't really an option, I've already looked at new ones and the K20D is very close to the price off the K7 and the K200D is €150 more then the K-X.

a manual focus tweak after the AF has locked
So you can manual focus all the time and have AF with the AF button.

I would scroll till the weed in the lower part is gone so that the stern of the flower where the butterfly is on emerge from the left lower corner.

Stefan, thanks, the level of attention to detail that people have surprises me sometimes. I'll have a go in PS/Gimp.

The Kx is now available throughout the UK at very nice prices - has the price3 dropped in the Netherlands as well?

I can hear an irritating whining noise.

A test shot of an openened black foam lined flight case with silver trim and locks was 3 stops under-exposed on the K20 and perfectly exposed on the DS!!! Why?
P-TTL is very sensitive not to burn the highlights.
