Originally posted by jeryst When using the internal flash on the K20D, I noticed that the shutter speed automatically is set to 1/60. Is there a setting somewhere that will allow the shutter speed to default to a faster setting?
The "default" shutter speed set when you have the flash on (either on-board or hot-shoe or wireless) is dependent on the lens focal length (it won't stay on 1/60 - you can confirm this if you have a zoom lens fitted on).
Its driven by a calculation to avoid camera shake for a given focal length, assuming SR off. Its explained in the K20D manual page 139.
You can set "any" shutter speed you want maximum up to the flash-synch speed of 1/180s - just use HyperP, Tv or Manual mode.
