Today I went to calibrate the 18-135 WR and got all set up with batteries and such. When I turned it on suddenly it wont go into focus peaking ? I get LV but no focus peaking. I only own one DA lens....all the rest are Manual. With this lens I get a box with green button selection when I hit OK to get focus peaking ???? Ive never seen this screen before and cant seem to get rid of it....I hit live view....then ok for focus peaking....instead get a screen with a box around centered object and rear wheel icon with choice for green button . If I turn the rear selector the box gets bigger and smaller??? I don't know what Im seeing.....??? I don't know how to get rid of it ??? Im not in composition ??? Im lost as far as what to do....
I have checked and rechecked about 5 times and tried everything I know. 100% battery , dismounting lens , settings.........double checked everything......now Im lost.
Right now Im very aggravated as Im getting tired of finding the glitches here and there between this K30 and my K3.
Now I have to come here yet again and beg for Pentaxian mercy ,for help , and forgiveness if its yet my fault once again.......... its done pzzd me off this time !
Help.....
*****Now it just does nothing in live view (as stated above) when I want focus peaking and hit the ok button ??? It just stays in regular liveview ??? I did just notice....Im in M mode and with manual focus focuspeaking works as it should.....but when I switch to AF it does go into focuspeaking but only as long as I hold the shutter button part way...... not when I hit ok button......Why only in M mode does it work constantly and stay in focus peaking with OK button?
Now Im rethinking this......I once again believe its a glitch all right......Im thinking that since this is a auto lens its a glitch with me ? Am I expecting a DA lens to act like a manual lens ? Is that why focus peaking isn't cooperating the same way as a Manual lens in M mode with Manual focus ?
I hardly ever shoot in anything but M mode and Manual lenses...
DUHHHHH.....Page #109....users manual.....stupid.... stupid..... ME ! But then it says if AF is selected after focus peaking is selected in MF.... it works too ? But it doesn't....unless you press the shutter part way ???...
