The K-5, like the K-7, has an electronic level Paul.
From Pentax.NL:
Elektronische waterpas, met een nieuw toegevoegde tilt waarschuwingsfunctie.
Electronic level function, with a newly added tilt confirmation tool.
A tilting screen would have been nice, but is not a deal breaker.
I didn't feel Pentax were shoved in a corner, and I was very pleased to be able to handle the new models.
The hospitality area would be bigger - Photokina is essentially a trade show to which the public are allowed.
It was only Pentax.de displaying there nor the full might of Hoya corp. I'd rather they have a small stand where you can play than them not be there at all.
And I was able to spend time talking to the people on the stands rather than hunting around for what I wanted - which was the case in the Canon mega display.
Maybe it was busier yesterday though.

Gwyn - that's too easy a solution
Now if you are having thunder and lightning
get off the pooter , shut it down and unplug it
How's the course???

I've got a spider travelling with me in the door mirror. How do I get rid of it, prefereably not by dimantling the mirror!

A huge flash of lightning and clap of thunder just made me jump. Really close - flash bang. You could feel it .
Maybe I should get off the computer .

All the ones my son drives, land Rovers and Range Rovers have them. Even the one we were driven in to get to Kilimanjaro airport, in Tanzania had one.
My Kangoo (no name) has one too.
Kitty 2 (the Prius) doesn't. Must be a Toyota thing since none of our Toyotas have had them, nor the Landcruiser in Tz, or the RAV4 in the US.

But who's going to carry it for me .
Now do I move to the New Forest or will you move to the Netherlands.
Or better yet, since it is chucking it down again, we could both move to Spain. Maybe Peter would like to borrow it too .

Where does the time go?
Glad she's enjoying her new toy.

Hope they get that visa sorted soon for you.

I get slightly wonky horizons from time to time, but nowhere near as bad as my other half manages - some of his are at 30degrees off the horizontal.
Hopeless. Nearly bad enough to be art, but not quite.
