For us rebadge owners, the latest firmware version is available (which brings the samsung up to date with the k10d, including full compatibility with SDM lenses and inproved flash exposure). Yay!

Please, a question for Bonovox (or others).
I see you have a Sigma flash with your GX10 (the EF-500DG ST). Is this flash a device specially made for Samsung, or is it the device that Sigma dedicated to Pentax and the K10D?
If your flash has been made for Pentax, does it work well with your GX10 (for example concerning the TTL-measure and the wireless function) ?
Best greetings from Paris !

GX-10 is not "kinda" K10, it IS K10D, it's even manufactured in the same facility in Phillipines. All the difference is slightly different style of buttons. So nothing can be specially designed for GX-10. All that is designed for K10 works the same way on GX-10.

Except for the battery grip

Well... yes, my fault ^^

I had an issue where the Image Stabilization kept deactivating, fortunately this f/w seems to have fixed it. Wasn't looking forward to sending it in under warranty...

It's not your fault that Samsung didn't go with the Battery Grip.

It's Samsung's fault that they didn't cater to their buyers... then again I don't know if they really care too much about the grip.

Now I have the proof of what was said by many of yours (but not by all...) : I have bought a Sigma 530 super Flash for Pentax and it works perfectly well on a Samsung GX10 body (including the P-TTL measure, the wireless function, etc.).

Thank you for your answers !
