Somewhere in the manual that's what it tells you to do. Like any computer, sometimes you need to reboot it and removing the battery for a while does the trick.
It hasn't happened to me yet, but no doubt at some critical moment it will.

The manual does indeed reveal the answer to many mysteries!

It can vary from 5 days or so to a very long time if things go wrong. The longest I have experienced where the parcel did actually arrive was something like 20 days.
The worst place to send to seems to be Italy and some sellers on eBay actually refuse to send there at all.

It's not really significant, not in a K20D that does 700 shots on one charge anyway.
I use 10 seconds, but it could happily be longer. Shorter might be a bit irritating - it wouldn't give much time to read the result.

Compared to the DSLRs all the compact cameras are not as good, but they're not bad for occasional or casual use.
I'm using a Pentax T30 at the moment, which is no better or worse than any others I've tried, and I've tried plenty!

It is the length of time the meter circuit stays activated once the shutter release has been half pressed to switch it on.

My point was more that there wasn't much of a saving. It would seem that the offer was extremely popular.You'd think a scammer would go with more popular or in-demand products to make the quick buck.

The thing is that eBay is so big that bad things will happen.
By and large, photographic dealing is OK, especially with vintage stuff, because the customers and sellers can both be quite knowledgable. Usually scammers can be spotted.
I'm surprised that £420 for a GX20 body excited so much interest. After cashback, our K20D + 18-55mm II packages cost us just £465 each.
