When I shoot Live-View the mirror moves twice. It sounds like the K-70 takes two pictures. Does anybody know what that might be? I'm pretty curious.

It is the sound of the shutter closing and normal exposure sequence followed by the mirror rising and the shutter opening.

The K-3/K-3II, KP, and K-1/K-1ii do an abbreviated cycle with no mirror movement and a lot less noise.
