Well hopefully with live view mode it will give me what I want. In live view the mirror gets locked up but the question is.. when you snap the pic does the mirror go down then back up on the k-x--like the nikon d3100 does? I guess I'll find out since I bought a K-X the other day :) Pink one for $439, new with kit :)

Would be nice to manually lock it up and then snap when you want, like with a shutter cable. PUt the mirror up, wait for the breeze to die down or that insect to move (or settle down) and then snap. With the self timer, that's like the "mirror lockup" on the Nikon FM2.. and you just have to be lucky.
I guess I could switch to live view after i focus and then snap with the cable? On the Nikon d3100 (which I returned recently), when you switch to live view, the mirror goes down and then back up when you SNAP! LMFAO! stupid.

.. the Nikon d3100 sure doesn't lol.. I returned it today. No way in heck will I have a camera that doesnt do mirror lockup or work with any older autofocus lenses or meter through the lens of older nikkor lenses.. so glad I am going with pentax instead.
