agree with this from lennybloke " I'm surprised nobody suggested that the turbine blade moved between you composing and taking the shot "
here is my instance of something similar, he was not there when i half pressed and just got a quick glimpse as i fully pressed, too late to stop. was after people behind on a bench

have you tried with no lens fitted, if it comes on go into menu and do a reset. just a thought. had virtually the same thing with my K5 when i had one, it recovered but i would not trust it again and bought another camera.

we all know the K7 is Nigel's love child but the K5 series did give improvements over it with the K5 11s probably being the peak of that series as by then you had improved ISO performance which is not just about being in the dark but just being indoors where sometimes you need to up it without creating yourself more pp work, the sensor on K5 series also gave higher dynamic range and with the 11s the AA filter was removed to give sharper images from camera so again less pp time. i agree wholeheartedly with Nigel on the series body/control layout, that is why i bought the K7 . the K7/K5 camera's are easy to use and understand. the K3 is a great camera but does have a bigger learning curve if you want the best out of it from what i have gathered reading the forums here and other places. so my suggestion would be K5 11s

thanks for all the comments, the cemetery is a nature reserve also , it has very rare local and national flora and fauna but as yet not found out exactly what. the Chapel of rest is now a maintenance store. the first person to be buried here was William Lewis on 4th Sept. 1856 , a pauper from the workhouse which was just up the road now turned into flats.

thanks Don, it is the Chapel of Rest not a Church. made the same mistake myself when i first saw it.

another fine set QC, that looks quite a versatile lens as well.

i used Alan Marlowe to sort my FA 50 f1.7 not long after i bought that, excellent service and fair prices as well as being well thought of by many on this forum, just phone or email

print at least i item a month or even fortnightly, it only needs to be a nozzle check, done it ever since i have had it and never had a problem but i have not followed my own advice and not printed for about 3 months resulting in dried and blocked up red which took 7 cleaning cycles and a lot of ink to fully restore. another tip i found was do not switch the printer off as it may do a cleaning cycle everytime you switch on which results in more ink usage
