Originally posted by reh321 I took pictures using my Pentax Q7; the standard prime lens enabled me to shoot at f/1.9, but even then I was down to a hand-held 1/6 second several times. Ignoring the color depth issues that go with a smaller sensor, I did some pixel-peeping, and every piece of writing visible was as sharp as possible at the 12MP provided by that sensor. The Pentax SR certainly did its job, and I am confident that the K-3ii will provide an even better stability.
In those situations, the Q system has the extra advantage of using leaf shutters,
which have better-balanced moving masses when they're fired.

Good point.
Although the SR+PS trick might be possible theoretically,
it would take way more processing power than a Milbeaut has available.
