Ok so I just received a brand new K20D in the mail (yayyyyy!!) First things first, coming from a K100DS, that viewfinder is just drool worthy. Also, the AF is MOST DEFINITELY faster. It is definitely more confident. I put on my F50 1.7 and pictures would just snap into focus. its incredible. For my K100ds, no matter what I did, regardless of the lens, regardless of the subject, the camera would ALWAYS focus past the subject a little, the focus in front a little, and then lock. Even if I lock focus, if I release the shutter and press half way again, it would go back a little, front a little then lock. It was so annoying.
ANYWAYS, here comes the problem: I started charging the battery and was about halfway charged when I couldn't stand it anymore and just had to pop it in and start taking pictures. Everything was fine and dandy. One of the first things I tried out was Live View. It was working, refresh rates were a little disappointing compared to the D300, but thats ok. I turned off Live View and next time I tried it again,
my camera became unresponsive! I couldn't do anything, I tried turning it off and on, but nothing worked except removing the battery and replacing it. Then a little later I tried taking a picture with the burst mode, but halfway through it was unresponsive. The burst mode worked once before, but this time, again it was unresponsive and i had to replace the battery. When I reviewed the pictures that were taken there were three of them that just looked weird (multicolored horizontal stripes). Anyone else encounter this problem?
Thanks
