You have to set it up in menu setting [F12]:[3] "Leaves out the film leader and enables MRC frame advance". Write down the frame number on your film canister.

Yeah, I actually just used this the other day. I noticed some condensation in the battery grip release button after doing some test shots outside. I didn't know if it was safe to remove it mid-roll. It's a really nice feature! I think I've read through the whole manual already. Seems pretty simple, just the pentax function numbers are hard to remember.
Originally posted by Macario I have owned a MZ-S for almost 10 years, and until last december when I got my K-7 is was my favorite camera to go shooting. ANd ergonomically, I do prefere it above the K-7, and I even think the AF is a bit better
The ergonomics are definitely superior to my K-r as well, and it just feels way more solidly built. Wish they made a battery grip for the K-r...
