Still no better for me today. I've just timed how long it takes me to log in and it was 30 seconds, it's normally about 3 to 4 seconds.

What is strange though is that it's also ultra slow on my phone too ( using wifi ) It normally takes about the same time as my laptop.

Regards, Chris.

Seems it's only me then, strange.

My download speed is 12Mbps, all other sites are fine.

Hi,

Is anyone else having any trouble getting the forum to load up?

For the last 2 days it's been ultra slow for me, it's like I've gone back to dial up.

Regards, Chris.

The clicking is more distinct though when reverting from manual focus to AF.C. Smooth shift between single and continuous and back.

That's what I've noticed too.

Thank you both for the information.

Hi all,

Can any K20D owners please answer me the following question.

When you move the focus mode lever should there be a 'click' between each focus mode?

The reason I ask is because I have bought a gripped K20D off a guy at work at a price I just couldn't refuse.

When I move the lever from AF.S to AF.C the lever moves between the 2 modes smoothly ( no 'click' between the 2 modes ) but when I move the lever from AF.C to M there's a 'click'.

On my GX10 and K7 there's a 'click' between each focus mode.

Regards, Chris.

Chris, they are one and the same.

I've had a K10 and GX20 with no problems swopping batteries between the two.

I live in Derby and I haven't even been.

It's not just in one place, it seems to me that it's spread out over half of Derby town centre.

Regards, Chris.

Hi all,

Is the GX10 SLB-1674 battery interchangable with the K20D D-Li50 battery or are they completely different?

Regards, Chris.

Try running ccleaner, it's free and cleares out all the 'junk' from your computer - temp internet files, cookies, history and all manner of other clutter.

It's also got a registry cleaner for removing dead entries, and it has a reg back up option too which I recommend you use if using the reg cleaner function.

I put it on every computer I set up for people, including both my own laptops ( XP and W7 )

It will run on XP, Vista and W7 32 and 64 bit systems.
