Originally posted by Blacknight659 I would double check the seals on all the openings/doors. Verify there isn't play in the power switch and mode dial. Then put two SD cards and do some test shots, verify you can read/write to both card slots. After that, I would make sure the camera activates the Aperture lever by manually stopping down a lens and watching the shutter fire and activate the aperture. Finally, test SR by shooting a 1/8 or so with around 50mm. That last one is very subjective and you may need to come up with a better test there.
Good luck and sounds wonderful you have a K-3!
Thanks for that! Some great tips there.
Just one follow up question. When you say "I would make sure the camera activates the Aperture lever by manually stopping down a lens and watching the shutter fire and activate the aperture", does that require a manual lens with an aperture ring or do you mean use that feature in AV mode on the camera?
