Sorry if I'm reviving this topic against the wishes of others but I bet a few others like myself have been checking their cameras after reading the thread. I got the hot shoe spirit level on the camera and placed my Samsung GX 10 (sorry it's not a real Pentax but it was at a better price and I'm really pleased with it) on a tripod and guess what - the images did not lean. So all is well.
Not exactly. Looking back over the pictures I've been taking over the last 4 months there is quite a percentage that show a right lean. Now what's happening? It's not something noticeable on my pre - GX snaps using my Minolta and Canon film cameras. It's really bugging me. It could be something to do with the way I use the shutter release but that seems to activate easier than my old cameras. Not knowing exactly how a digital camera records an image could it be associated with a time lag in recording the image - I don't use the fastest SD cards. Could it be anything to do with image stabilisation. Or is it the onset of photographer's lurch - too much kit carried over my right shoulder!!
Anyway, hello I'm new here and the GX is my first digital camera. All I know is film and film developing and I'm fast trying to understand this new digital imaging world.
Cheers
