Don't photograph the sunset or sunrise directly. Use the unique light from the setting or rising sun to photograph other things.

Ever since Pentax introduced Shake Reduction, and also with the K-5, the user manuals advise us to switch off the SR when the camera is used on a tripod or sometimes when using a flash. I would like to have the reason for this explained. Even on a tripod there might be small vibrations due to mirror action or the wind and the SR should again be helpful in eliminating the effects from the photograph. What goes wrong when a tripod is used with the SR switched on? As I understand the SR has to do two things: 1. Sense the shake, 2. Shake the other way to compensate. So, when nothing shakes the SR should do nothing. Why can the SR not be on permanently? And what is the case when the camera is on a monopod, when only three of the six degrees of freedom are blocked? Shared wisdom will be appreciated.
