Thanks! Still learning the KP, I found the quick zoom feature.
There is 2x up tp 16x, which of these settings, if any, is exact 100% zoom.
On the K3, you could also go up 2x 4x etc. but there would be a special 100% setting, at which the displayed image would appear to "pop into focus", making it easy to judge critical sharpness.
I seem to be missing such a setting. As I remember, it was close to 8x but a little further zoomed in.

The sound might be the SR.
Thanks, it is a real relief to have the stability of the KP, no lock-ups, no mirror flapping, no unresponsive spells. It is truly delightfully stable.
AF is indeed faster and more responsive with the DA560, less hunting also.
Of course, still not hunt-free, but for that you may also blame the relatively slow max. aperture of the lens f5.6.
A f4 lens would no doubt be more surefire.
All in all, S-AF with the KP+DA560 is pretty good, other than with fast moving objects, that is still a no go.
You may well be right about the SR producing the sound, it is logical. SR is not noticeably better than K3 with the DA560, but that's to be expected. The effectiveness of the SR is just not the same with a 560mm lens (750mm apsc) as it is with more common focal lengths. And you need 1/500 to freeze subject movement mostly anyhow, at which a steady arm is more important than the SR.
EDIT: it is not the SR. I tested with SR off, and the sound is identical. It seems the KP is keeping the AF in some way active for about a second or so after half-pressing the shutter button. AF works great on this little body.
