you will also notice the fault as you try to magnify or shrink your images on playback.

sometimes in the palyback mode if the wheel is touch the camera will revert to capture mode.

Mine is goaing away for repair next week.

Thanks for that. It wasn't too bad at first so I assumed it was me. but it's got worse recently. I'm sending it in under the warranty.
Thanks again

When adjusting the aperture or shutter speed is the reading supposed to change with each click of the wheel. Mine seems to miss a few and can even go the other way. eg if the shutter sheed is getting slower it can go down click a couple of times and then miss then go down or even up. Is there a fault on my camera?

thanks for that. It has pointed me in the right direction. i'll check with a Pentax store to see the best thing to buy.
Thanks again.

I recently bought a Kr to upgrade from my ds. Very nice but disappointed to find no jack socket for a remote. I want to shoot long night exposures but the manual says shutter open as long as button pressed but I don't want to hang on to the camera for 5 mins. Is there another remote that I can use which will do this for me, an IR one perhaps
thanks in anticipation

Just checked mine as I thought this was interesting. the only noise I hear on mine is a very very faint clicking.

I know the live view makes a noise but I haven't really worked with this yet.

Sorted it out on my Kr. Can't select Shake reduction in timer mode. Also found out that the HDR can't be selected when shooting raw.

It takes many reads of the manual for it to all slot into place.

i'm having a similar problem. When i go to the control panel after pressing info the SR is not highlighted so i can't select it.???????
I'm still playing around with it so here's hoping.
