Dear firends, I recently got a K10D with a shaking sensor issue. The sensor dances like crazy at shutter speeds longer than 1/3. It seems that it is the SR system failing and insists on moving erratically, which renders the camera unusable at lower speeds. I made a
video of the sensor's performance so that you can see what I am talking about. Yes, it is that bad.
I have found little information about this issue on this forum. Some users did experience it on their K10D, but also it seems that it occurred also in some K7 and some K5. There is no apparent solution for this problem, apart from sending it to repair. I am not considering a professional repair since cost would long exceed what I paid for the camera. I was wondering if any of you is so clever to modify the K10D's firmware and completely deactivate the SR system of the camera. Maybe this could help to, at least, have a static sensor. The shaking sensor issue, by the way, occurs in my camera when SR is on or off, indistinctly. I would very much appreciate your help.
