Originally posted by beholder3 option to allow saving three separate DNG files for an HDR instead of one combined
I second @Giklab 's comment that this is equivalent to bracketing, likely won't be added for that reason, and should be removed from the list to keep it concise.
Originally posted by beholder3 allow user to choose one of three video bitrates
Or at least allow for raw video streaming, which would save Pentax from having to research other codecs.
Originally posted by beholder3 allow user to switch video SR between software SR and hardware SR (like K-5); yes fully understanding that this records SR noise; maybe display a warning for the noobs
I'd classify this as a hardware issue, not a firmware issue.
Originally posted by beholder3 allow user to choose between MJPEG and AVCHD video format
Isn't AVCHD proprietary?
Originally posted by beholder3 allow option to block shutter if SR is not ready yet
It's always ready these days, isn't it?
Originally posted by beholder3 allow focus peaking during video capture (not only before)
Yes please, and magnification too.
Originally posted by beholder3 allow user to switch between SD cards to write onto via press of a button (configurable button, at least Fx-button).
Or at least in the menu, I'd be happy with that too.
Originally posted by beholder3 allow non-open-aperture-metering with non-A-lenses, so that using them in Av-mode does not require pressing the green button any longer
This is already possible, assuming the lenses have a manual diaphragm. Right?
Originally posted by beholder3 allow setting a time delay between the four pixelshift images (to be set in 0.25 second steps; between 0 and 6 seconds) and activate the center pin on the flash hotshoe to allow flash usage for pixelshift.
This will never happen because you'd just be increasing the likelihood of getting artifacts. Or maybe not, I hope Pentax proves me wrong.
Originally posted by beholder3 bring back the underexposure clipping display / zebras from the K-5
Isn't this already available through the shadow/highlight alert?
Originally posted by beholder3 allow more customization of the autofocus in AF.C to include (reference the options in a Canon 5D3)
Another hardware-related suggestion.
Originally posted by beholder3 following/tracking of AF points when the subject is being handed over from one AF point to another
Already possible on the K-3 and K-3 II (and properly displayed on the K-1).
Originally posted by beholder3 automated support for AF adjustments. The camera could shoot automated picture series of 21 pictures, each one with a plus one adjustement starting from -10 up to +10. User could select how many shots to be fired at one stage (e.g. 1-10 shots each). The camera should also automatically unfocus to one extreme position after each shot. This is what users today do and it is a pain to do manually.
I would love this too, but to be honest, it's too much work for an in-camera feature. They should add this feature to Image Transmitter 2.
Originally posted by beholder3 allow AF-Correction for Zoom lenses in 3 step (close/medium distances/far)
And for different focal lengths.
