Thanks Adam for clarifying this for me!!
I will go try a Nikon body to test it out!

One further question, based on current firmware,
when the OVF illumination is turned on (the red light),
will it be on all the time or just when you half-press the shutter button(keep on til you release the shutter button)?

Dear Adam, Thank you again for the wonderful video!

Here are some questions regarding the AF overlay:
Because there is no sound in the video you post,
I guess the red flashing light(starting from 00:36)
indicating that you were half-pressing the shutter button?

If my assumption is correct, It seems that there is no red solid square indicating the in-focus AF point
when you acquiring the focus.
then how do we know what AF point(s) is(are) current locked on
if we choose multiple AF points(auto 33/9...etc) to shoot with?

Because from Ricoh's official AF tracking Demo video
there is no red square, just the black ones indicating the AF points that are currently tracking(in-focus).
Those AF points that are not in-focus (but still effective) will not be overlayed while tracking.

Is K-1 using black square instead of red solid square(we used to have in k-3/5/7) indicating the in-focus AF points? If so, wouldn't black square be less ideal than red solid square for shooting at dark/black scene?

Sorry if I totally misunderstand how k-1's AF system works.
Thanks in advance!!!
