James Popsys buys a GRIII X

From everything I've seen, the GR IIIx is a great little camera. I have started stashing cash towards a purchase. I have the GR III & GR, and love them Both. While they are small and light, they are premium cameras and well built. I haven't shot a single frame with my wonderful KP since the GR III arrived.....

Focus confirmation in manual focus mode

When the backbutton focus is disabled I don't get the focus confirmation light. So I'll have to play around and figure that out. But it does work with backbutton focus enabled, so I'm happy about that.
I need to get out and shoot around with this camera more often than I have been....

Thanks everyone. My KP is set to back button focus, and I didn't know you had to hold the AE/F button down for it to work. I'm guessing this function is commonly known, but it would have been nice if Pentax/Ricoh would have included a small blurb in the manual for manual focus options & operations. I've had the KP for over a year and am still learning all it is capable of dong. A truly great little camera.
Thanks again for your help, this is what make the Pentax Forums such a great place, the great people here.....

Hello,
Can you set the KP to give focus confirmation by the focus point lighting up when focus is achieved, using an AF lens like the the 20-40 Ltd in manual focus mode?
If so, please tell me how to set that up.
Thanks,
John

What lenses do you use on your KP?

These have served me well, and are all I really need. HD 20-40 Ltd my perfect all around lens. The HD 21mm Ltd for stealth and when size matters, and the 100mm Macro WR when I need a wee bit more reach. All wonderful lenses, and perfect for the KP.

Put the KP (or GRIII) sensor/processor in a K mount for Pentaxian & GR - GRX fans, and an M mount for the great unwashed..... Ricoh/Pentax has the foundation for a great mirrorless system, they just need to build upon it.....

UTC doesn't have AM and PM distinctions. Does he mean 11 AM and PM Mountain Time (Arizona) which then needs to be converted to UTC for all the Pentaxians world wide?

The KP is 896.95 at B&H right now, and I don't think I can wait much longer. I'm probably going to bite the bullet and place an order as I really want to get my hands on one.....

If push comes to shove I'd still get a GR, but am hoping for a price drop for this little beauty. Does anyone anticipate the GR getting a price drop?

Sigma DP 2 Merrill review

This will make a nice companion to my K5. I'd shoot just like I was using a view camera, 100 iso on a tripod for landscapes. I too have been searching for one camera that does it all and agree it doesn't exist. This pairing of a fast, good in low light K5 with the slower eye popping IQ of the DP1 Merrill is the next best thing....
