Still persevering with the new firmware, the autofocus does hunt more than it did, but that might be a custom setting that has been reset. My only gripe at this point is the new level display produced by pressing info twice, I first looked at this and though wow I can ditch my clip on spirit level, however Pentax have not resolved the one fault that stopped me using the inbuilt function in the first place, even with this new function the K7 still uses the light meter display as a spirit level through the eyepiece, this work fine until I want to shoot in manual mode then I have to go into custom settings and disable the spirit level before I can shoot manual. So unless I am missing something, looking forward to 1.11 or whatever they call it.

Bag all packed, batteries charged, memory cards clear and now I'm off to remove the cherries that have adhered themselves to my car after getting the duff parking spot at work, it currently looks like it has been in a Quentin Tarantino film.

Great set David, the minimalistic feel of 1 & 2 works well for me although I prefer the position of the man in no 1, as a suggestions would no 2 look better without the pink door?

The freedom ticket does not look worth it for me because you are not aloud to take pictures inside the house, and that Tamron is far more important , so go for the small Piggy bank.

Sounds like any firmware on anything electrical, I have spent many nervous moments upgrading computer motherboard firmware over the years.

Just installed the firmware and had an initial problem with the autofocus juddering, dropped the battery out put it back in all is well. Pressing the info button on live view multiple times now works far better.

Thanks Mike, firware downloading right now.
