With video I tend to edit it first to trim it etc. (using Premiere Elements or Windows Movie Maker, which is free.) I used to then burn to DVD, but now do as Don suggests and stream from the PC via Apple TV. Never tried playing direct from the camera as this seems a rather clunky way to do it!

(PS I find taking video with the K-01 MUCH easier than I ever did with the K-05 and I'm taking more as a result.)

I have just purchased a K-01 because my GX10 is too bulky. It has a green button that you can use to set the correct speed for any given combination of aperture/ISO like other models (unlike others it can also be customised for something else if you're not using manual lenses). You can also customise the red button for DOF preview. What it also has is focus peaking, which is simply sensational! For the first time I can use my 50mm 1.4 and nail the focus EVERY TIME, even wide open!!

At £300 it really is a no brainer, given the spec. I also think it looks good (mine's silver) and handles just fine. BUT, the lack of a viewfinder does have it's downside, especially in bright light, and auto-focus is laboured. Overall though, I'm very pleased with it - if Pentax had launched at this price they might have had a winner!

Hope this helps.

Cheers

Tony

This would partner your new K-30 brilliantly (especially if you get the blue one!)

OK - price reduction to £150. If this doesn't do it, then ebay.

I'm tempted to put the price up!

Seriously folks, still available at £160 delivered, which is a good price for a great lens in excellent condition.

Final bump - £55 incl UK Special Delivery. Next stop ebay if this doesn't do it.
