Originally posted by Dave L all the test videos I've seen to far seem to focus on unfeasibly fast

If you watched that video of the green pool in the forest and the old house,
you could see most pans were very slow and not as fast as you described it.
(You really saw it ?) This kind of roll-back is completely unacceptable of course.
No need to be indifferent.
That quicker tree-to-house-pan could to be avoided, with SR on
but it shows what is happening there mechanically, and with usual
cameras that speed of course is acceptable (and without SR too)
I won't use the SR anymore - while panning with my K-7 - same for K-5
(Or will try to learn new ways of moving, which I doubt now will really work)
The K-3 does the panning-job much better seen in that private-room up above.
(I would have switched to that software-SR while panning if this always works so well)
In my K10 I do have a switch for SR at the camera-body. A shame they put that down.
Nowadays - with two ways of SR possible - and the third choice to simply put it off,
this switch would be the only way to satisfy the user when in search for stabilisation.
