Not sure if this is the correct place. I understand from a friend of mine using a canon that when you press the shutter in bulb mode it actually shows you how long you have been holding the shutter in for. Is there such a feature on the K5.

Thanks all, the problem is with the dust alert as shots was taken of the blue sky after cleaning the sensor and it was clear.

Calsan yes it does face a white paper and it shows dust alerts on different place on the sensor everytime I do the dust alert.

I bought a k5 3 months ago. I had problems with dust from day one, I took the camera to have it sensor cleaned and the tech struggled for over 2 hours to get it clean. Also the dust alert would show some spots and lines on the sensor and every time I activate it it would be in a different place. Pentax in South africa says I should use it like that. Any of you experienced the same.

Gosh now I am totally confused. It seems off camera flash is fairly complicated with Pentax

Stanislav, so if I put the flash closer to the subject, less power would be used by the the flash than if I put it at say 6m.

Calsan it for instance gives a range, at say F8 it would typically show 0.7 to 8m. I see on a Nikon flash for instance it gives a fix distance, but on Pentax it gives a range. Does this mean I can place the flash at 0.7 m and get the same exposure as when I place it at 8m. that cannot be true because what about the inverse of square law.

When I put the AF540FGZ in a mode I get an effective distance range, how do I know where to put the flash within that range to get a proper exposure
