one interesting thought, for pentax, just came to mind: how about detecting that the camera is on a tripod, and switching to a customizable "tripod shooting" mode (that would not work for me though, as my QR table is always on my camera, and i see no simple practical way to detect except a switch or contact in the tripod mounting hole), or how about designing a customizable mode for tripod shooting on the mode dial.. as i write this, i realized i was about to propose the (existing) "user" mode
.. i have to look into that and see if it offers everything needed.
