K-30 odd video problem

Hi everybody!

You Tube

This image jumping occurs only on MF mode while filming, AF.S works fine.
No firmware update made yet.
Anyone any clues what is happening?

On the K-3, this happens whenever the aperture setting changes during recording (i.e. when in Av/M mode or when zooming with variable-aperture lenses). I didn't notice the same issue with the K-30, though...strange! Try updating for firmware for starters and see if that helps.
