The sensor is locked in place during exposure with SR off by the very same voice-coil motors that move the sensor during SR but in the case of SR being off they just aren't modulated. There is no home or lock down position, rotate the camera about the lens axis and you'll hear the assembly clunk every 90 degrees. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
