| Originally posted by Singulariter Hey guys, I just got my new K-5 body in the mail today from Amazon, and I have a bit of a concern.... when I turn the camera over there is a sliding sound that comes from inside the camera....like something is shifting inside. Mind you this is without any lens attached and the body cap on, but I never had this issue with my K10 so I'm kinda freaking out :-/ Has anyone had this issue / is this common with the K-7/5? My FA31 is coming tomorrow (alas I sold my old gear earlier this year) so I guess I'll sit it out and play the waiting game, urgh!! Fingers crossed, George You should have heard this to some degree with your K10d because it is probably the orientation sensor you are hearing. Since this is a new body, you definitely need to verify this. You really won't notice that thing much its just the first time you here it when it makes its occasional sound, it seems louder than it really is. | |

Thanks guys, I think you nailed it. Had a quick talk with Pentax support and they had the same suggestion, I'm still keeping them crossed  Hopefully I'll have some pics coming this week! | |

Actually I have been a lurker for several years as I am a prior K10D owner, I just never wanted/needed to post until I sold my stuff earlier this year. Despite what others have mentioned about having the same issue in their K10s it was never as pronounced for me, so it was quite a shocker. That being the case I don't get over to the beginner's corner much, thus I missed the sticky. Thanks for all the info | |

I visited a pentax sub forum somewhere else that has a "What is that clunking ?" as a sticky. It's like saying what is that stink ? | |
