Saw this little blurb in the Washington Post online:
"The K-7 also has a unique, nifty feature that uses the camera's
accelerometers to create an "electronic level" for perfectly straight
shots. Depending on the tilt of the camera, a read-out on the
camera's
screen shows the user whether the K-7 is perfectly level or slightly
tilted to one side."
That is kind of cool sounding.
Even cooler is the capability to use the shake-reduction activators
to rotate the sensor to automatically correct for a slight tilt.
No more tilted horizons!
It may even do that automatically if it already knows what "level"
is. A boon to me for sure.
