A couple of days ago I experienced the mirror flutter as well. It happened just as I took a shot and the battery had drained to the point of the K3 shutting itself off. Probably fluttered about 10 times before the unit completely shut off from battery drainage.
That day I had a Wasabi battery in the camera, so it doesn't seem to be related to the name on the battery.
My K3 came with the latest software version - I took delivery mid-September.

I want to thank all of you for the quick replies. I routinely use both Live View sand the viewfinder; that's probably why I got a little confused by the differences. My camera does appear to be working correctly.
to Dave's Cliches - you mention setting the focus to face recognition or using phase detection - I don't think I've ever seen selections for them; where would those options be set - I could have used the face detection on a recent trip to Asia. I managed OK, but would have gotten a few more keepers if I'd gotten focus on the face instead of an architectural element slightly adjacent to my subjects.
Thanks again to all who replied

I've had my K3 with the 18-135mm lens since mid-September. For most of that time it seems to me that when the auto focus locked, the focus square would change from a red color to green; at least I assume the box changed to green to indicated focus lock
A few days ago I was using and older FA 80-320mm lens with the camera and I noticed that the red focus box wasn't changing to green even though I recall it doing that previously.
Yesterday when taking some photos with my 18-135mm lens that the red box isn't changing to green when the focus locks but I am getting the beep.
I don't know if I accidentally changed some setting or if the red box going to green doesn't reflect focus lock at all.
Can someone describe how it should work and if I've accidentally changed a setting how I might change it back
Thanks
Richard
