Question from new K-x owner

jacek1995 · 12-03-2009, 07:08 PM

My Oly C5060 has died recently after many years of service so today I have bough my first DSLR: Pentax K-x. 2 lenses kit. I have noticed that when I move K-x body I can feel something slightly shifting inside it. Is this normal? Otherwise camera works fine and pictures are sharp. Thanks.

Welcome to the forum!

The behaviour is perfectly normal. It's the sensor assembly that is moving around a bit when the SR unit is inactive.
