Hi All - first post on this forum!
I've read this thread with some interest having just purchased a KR - obviously slightly concerned about the reported FF issue.
Conducted a major test last night and could honestly not re-create the issue - try as I might. Dark room, low energy bulbs, halogen lamps, a degree of natural light (fading) - plus combinations thereof...focus was true. Note: using a Sigma 17-70, auto WB and single point AF-C on P mode (iso800). Some of the results were pants but a 645 wouldn't have faired any better!
Also tried a powerful LED torch as a back light - again true focus.
Hmm
I'd be very interested to hear from other "new" KR users who can or cannot replicate the FF issue.
I guess it's possible that Pentax have fixed the issue on later models?
It seems that a firmware upgrade won't fix the issue (or it would have happened??) so if I'm right it maybe that there was (is) a mechanical, sensor problem.
When I loose the will to live again I'll conduct some more tests to see if I can get the FF issue to replicate on my KR - until then....I think its absolutely super!
