MX prices are going through the roof on E bay at present. The bubble will burst eventually but right now, if you've no use for one, sell it !

I've taken one or two similar shots of people in similar situations thinking that they ought to be recorded but you have to steel yourself to ignore the reality of what is before you in order to deliberately do it. Then, when I have processed the image I feel very guilty for having taken advantage of a person's vulnerability. The 'ethics' of this situation are horribly mangled.

Not at all a waste of time. If nothing else it gave us an excuse to bump up a great camera.

"I'm presuming that it's not a stupid camera to buy?"

Absolutely not. The K5 is a modern classic and produces excellent results. It's a really reliable workhorse.

Question:
When you enter live view the mirror is pulled up out of the way. Something holds it there for the entire time it is up. (I'm guessing electromagnets). How much strain does this put on the mechanism generally and does constant use of it cause extra wear and tear? There is also a soft whirring sound with the K1 that only ceases when the mirror is dropped back in place, so something extra is happening in there.

Curious bit of kit but the camera isn't on the deck and the PoV isn't horizontal.

There is clearly a marketing opportunity for a "fogged up" filter. Personally, I think the 1st one is a cracker! ...... And you would probably have won the winter solstice monthly contest with it.
