I wish,... But it won't happen while the Stills-Only crowd keep filling biased responses in to the feedback surveys.
Originally posted by RobSpain But I am curious to hear about other K-70 users' experience in this department. And perhaps there is a trick I don't know about.

Originally posted by RobSpain It's just that the colours indoors were super saturated and almost unreal.
For shooting on any Pentaxx,.... Check your colour profile - Normal/Natural, and Muted are the best choices for shooting video on Pentaxes.
If you have the colour profile set to something like Vibrant, it will get very nasty very quickly.
Make sure to set the White Balance correctly too, that's absolutely essential.
Originally posted by gump Is there a video camera that allows the capture of single frames that will produce outstanding reproduction?
Only the four Sony NEX-VG series - VG10, 20 and 30 were APSc sized sensors, VG-900 is Full Frame.
They got very nasty reviews when new by DSLR shooters who didn't understand how to do video properly, but try buy a VG-900 secondhand now, and they still cost close to the As New price.
Originally posted by sqrrl Occasionally I'll use my kp (or prior to owning this my k50) for indoor low light shooting,
In that respect, the KP is the only DSLR that can keep up with Sony's A7s models for low-light performance, but still suffers from two low a data rate in the CoDec, even though it has a 50% higher bandwidth then other Pentax bodies.
