Minor detail: what happens if you only have one card in the K-3, and use slot #2 rather than #1? On the way out to dinner last night I grabbed the K-3, neglected to get the card from the reader where I had been downloading some afternoon playing-around shots. But I did have a card in the #2 card slot. When I remembered that #1 was empty, I chose to leave #1 empty. No hiccup, no issue whatsoever. Most of the time most people will probably use the camera as intended: with a card in both slots, #2 used either for a wireless card, for the jpg destination when shooting RAW+ , as a redundant backup when shooting RAW, or as a second card to write to when #1 fills up. But shooting with only one card is allowed, and the one card can be in either slot without any additional setup. stan -- 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. -- 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.
