Don't know if you use TAV mode but it's not on the dial as an option. However if you shoot in M mode with auto ISO it is effectively tav. Use the +/- to change from setting appature and shutter speed. The rear screen shows it as tav.

I find it easier composing with the rear screen indoors with the k01.

Thanks for the heads up.

I did some non scientific tests in my front room before and after the update and it seems to be locking on in dim light better.

I am selling my Mk1 Sigma 70-200 which is generally considered to have better IQ than the 70-200 Macro versions. I now have 2 of these which is a bit greedy, hence the sale.

It will also accept the Sigma TC's 1.4x and 2x.

I have had this for about 3 years and used it most weekends for the last 2 of these years shooting a local parkrun event. This locks on focus really quickly on my K7, K5s that I have used it with. The lens does show signs of use and I've tried to show this in the pictures taken, there are also some dust specs (struggled to capture in the photos) in the lens which from my experience have no impact on the quality of the pictures taken.
