Remember the ZX-5n and its 'wide' & 'narrow' focus area? It's like selecting the 11 & the 5 focus points on the K-x; there are no focus indicators other than a beep/light in the viewfinder that says something (in the given area) is in focus. Having used the MZ-5n (ZX-5n) and the MZ-3 transitioning to the K-x was relatively easy even with my aging eyes. In the K-x, I usually keep it set on the 5 focusing points or the single center for critical situations. -- Bong Manayon http://www.bong.uni.cc -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
