I never bothered with 1.01 either, but this one sounded worthwhile.

Does the 1.03 update contain the previous 1.02 update too?
There was no 1.02. For some reason it was never released.

The improved AF and SR are apparently Pentax trying something out on us K20D users ready for the mysterious new concept camera. Which won't be FF or a square sensor it seems.

You obviously visited the most scenic parts while you were there.

I think the dull light actually helps with this sort of photo. I like it.

I hate to think what the 60-250mm f4 is going to retail at when/if it is released.
24the April is the release date. Maybe.

Too late for me as I go away on the 25th and will be in panic mode on the 24th. I think I'd rather have the 15mm now in any case.

Maybe they'll do the update for you

I hope you get your camera back soon - there seem to be a lot of K20Ds being repaired at the moment

I agree 12MP is enough, certainly for the 4/3rds sensor, but also really for most cameras. I'd rather time and effort and money went into improving the functions of a camera, and better lenses than constantly propping more MP into it.

The E30 gets a good write up in my Dutch newspaper today btw.

What was the update for
From the Pentax site:

Quote:
* In the cropping function of the Playback menu, added the ability to change the crop shape from rectangle to square.
* When the Help button is reprogrammed to Digital Filter, added the ability to engage the Digital Filter using the Help button in playback mode. Previously, this only worked in image capture mode.
* Added a Custom digital filter to the available filters in capture mode. This filter can be customized to the photographer's personal preferences, and saved.
* Corrected the date formatting for DPOF printing when date is selected for a single image print.

No it just says it improves the accuracy of the SR function. I've just updated mine, painless as ever to do. Now to find something to test the new improves SR on

Google street view is wonderful. I love it. I have used it a lot for planning my holiday in the US at the end of the month.
Plus looking up places I used to live in the UK to see what my old homes look like now .
