One good hope is worth a thousand certainties...to quote a Time Lord.

I don't think it would be possible Dave, the limitation being the sensor assembly and other electronics that need to be in there.

I find the K-5 pretty close really.

How about a K-30 in silver?

Isn't she wonderful?

Hope you enjoy your new K-5!

I think you'll find it is in the manual.

That depends what sensors are available, and don't forget the Q has a new type that actually delivers pretty good quality, extraordinary for its size.

I have one and I think its well worth its £450 price tag for the two lens kit. Maybe as low as £399 now. Maybe as low as £250 for camera and standard lens.

Well the theory is that you tension the rewind crank, to prevent the film moving, then depress the rewind button and wind on to cock the shutter without moving the film.

After this, do a blank exposure before shooting the next frame to avoid overlap.

I never found that this worked very well.

That's fine MarkD. The question remains do cameras have a use for you or not. I don't think the sensor in the Q could be bigger without the camera being considerably bigger, but I don't mind as I do sometimes have a use for it.

I don't currently have a need for the K-01 as I prefer to use the DSLRs.

I don't think you need the TC Doug - the 200mm will be a 35mm-equivalent of 1100mm all on its own. That should pop nicely in a jacket pocket.

Best to eliminate the various possibilities first.

Check the dioptre setting on the viewfinder - point the camera at a blank wall and adjust until the etched lines in the viewfinder are sharpest. Whatever you are looking at is best out of focus as you are looking for your eye feeling relaxed and actually focusing on the screen, not the scene.

Then find a nice architectural subject, use the lens wide open and take some shots at various distances. See if they are sharp. Try AF and MF as well. Try LiveView also if you feel inclined to see if the different focusing system shows any errors up.

If there's an error, then think about calibrating lenses or sending the camera for warranty repair.

Er, no Algi....
