I've just taked delivery of a (new to me) K10 which is going to be I hope a reasonable step up from my K100.

Just a couple of questions, is the latest firmware version 1.31?

I will be mainly using it with my 16-45 and one or two manual primes, but mainly the 16-45. Do I need to somehow calibrate it to get the best focus performance? I've read about other members using some kind of hidden menu to adjust settings for various lenses, or should I just leave alone?

Cheers.

Nothing wrong with these shots, but as an alternative I always think shots of cars look more dramatic when shot side on and panned so the car is pin sharp against a blurred background.

Maybe something to try next time?

I've tried the above and it is definitely a mechanical problem with the button. It feels like there is no resistance when you press so the button can not be held at the halfway position - it just goes all the way down.

So. I think it needs a new shutter release button but I don't want to pay much as there is not a lot of value in the K100D these days. Any ideas?

Did you use a filter to get the long exposure on shot 2?

I have a K100D and the shutter release button does not stop halfway to enable autofocus. Instead it goes straight down and takes out of focus shots. I guess it needs a new release button.

Any recommendations of camera repair shops for the Leeds/Bradford/Harrogate area?

Thanks

Thanks very much for the replies, I'll check those out.

One question, will the Lightroom beta cease to function after it's free availability expires?

Any recomendations about which free raw software convertors that are any good?
