the new "Movie SR" that pentax has put in the K-01 and also the K-30 is terrible compared to the SR from previous cameras. The new SR uses digital compensation, which induces blur and jello effect, while the original shake reduction moved the sensor and did a much better job at stabilizing video.
The K-01 still uses the sensor moving SR in picture mode, but switches to digital SR in movie mode. The reason they put this compromised digital SR is to avoid the noise that the mechanical SR used to cause in movies, but since the K-01 has a mic input jack, they should have a option in the menu to use standard SR like you can when in the pictures modes.
I really hope in a firmware update, Pentax will put a option for digital or mechanical Shake reduction during movie. Because of the induced blur from Movie SR, I dont even like using SR anymore in movies.
If anyone wants to see the difference themselves, simply go to the custom settings #15, and turn on SR during live view. Go to picture mode and move the camera around, then go to movie mode and notice how much worse digital SR is. (its worst at 24, 25 or 30fps, at higher frame rates the blur is masked, but still more shakier than mechanical SR)

I did some photoshop trying to see how a k-01 would look with those retro leather grips, and also a better color combination where the base is also silver, I think that is what gives it the retro look. I wish pentax offered them like this.
The timer lever might be a little overkill, lol:lol:

here are a couple i took today with the K-x and promaster (tamron 18-200). Processed a little in lightroom to bring out the contrast and shadows. These dont seem too over processed do they?
(imgur removed the exif for some reason)
