He says in the video, as they have all along, that it will have a manual mechanical film advance. Same with the rewind. They also seem to be considering some sort of unconventional focusing method based on zone focusing, so I’m guessing at a click-stop mechanism possibly implemented as focus by wire rather than having all the gubbins needed for autofocus or for a real focus ring. > -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
