Originally posted by regor Did you have issues with shutter lag? I often miss action shots due to its dismal lag, which is like 1/2sec it seems.
No issues, because an event like this is just people standing around, talking to each other. Simple to prefocus on the eyes, reframe while holding the button half depressed, and then release the shutter when the moment is right.
On the other hand - I took my K-01 to the flying field and was shooting RC aircraft. Oh boy, that was a disaster. With my K5 and an old 400mm AF lens, I get tons of keepers. With the K-01 it was an exercise in masochism - missed focus and shutter lag. The K-01 is not for "things in flight"!
Horses for courses -- one of the reasons Pentax should offer both DSLR and mirrorless cameras.
