And - just to add to my previous post:
... going back up the thread to the point about when you have the SR on or off, what about when you have the camera on a monopod? As an MS sufferer, I doubt my ability to hold the camera steady on a monopod (but it is great for taking the weight). So under these conditions, is it SR on, or SR off?
Geoff
Geoff - thanks for your comments. I think that on a monopod you would be best with SR on. In the past I have taken shots with SR on and off while using a tripod, and to be honest I couldn't tell the difference. There is more chance of slight movement while using a monopod, so I would think the SR would help.

There's an LCE In Portsmouth too, which may be easier to get to - thanks for the tip.

I regret warranty repair is not possible. I bought it in Singapore in Jun 08, so it is long out of warranty. I have just updated my location, but Portsmouth would also be an option for repair.

Thanks for the replies. The Firmware is 1.01, which I have just updated to but it made no difference. I have just tried shooting on long exposure times, and I can hear the sensor moving back and forward while the shutter is open. It look like a repair will be required!

Can anyone recommend a reliable repairer???

Thanks,

Richard

These are a couple of close crops from the shots above. It seems there is some vertical movement of the sensor.

Sorry John - I think I am being dim but I can't find a "Your Photos" section. I did try My Portfolio, but it only let me upload one shot.

I will try to link to my Flikr account, and see if that works:

Thanks,

Yes, I am hand holding. I always have the SR off on the tripod. If I can work out how I will post a couple of examples.

I have begun to notice that I am getting blurred shots when taking photos on my K200D with the shake reduction turned on. The photos seem fine when the SR is turned off, and the autofocus seems fine through the viewfinder. Is this a problem that anyone else has noticed, and if so can it be fixed?

many thanks,

Richard

I have yet to upload anything (too busy at work ha ha!) but you can see some of what I have done here link on a different site. When I get organised I will post some stuff in the gallery here too.

Cheers,

Richard

Thanks guys! I guess I will have to get more acquainted with Aperture to get what I want. Still love the camera though!
