No, I am not talking about portrait versus landscape, but with
the camera on a copy-stand the menu is UPSIDE-DOWN (180 degrees)

So the current landscape menus would be perfect, just need 180 degrees rotation.

Luckily there is not much hurry in such cases, so I just read it upside-down 
now :)

Indeed, I have been using the K1 for just a week now, and really like it!

You can't do that I'm afraid. The menu would have to be heavily
reformatted to display both directions. It would be nice. Hell I'm
just happy the returned image rotation to the image review based on
the orientation of the camera. It drove me nuts when they stupidly
removed that feature from the K-5 IIs.

K1, rotate LCD screen?

[Jan van Wijk]

Hi all,

Just a quick question.

I was playing with my new K1 yesterday, doing some macro on a copy-stand.
(50mm macro + 100mm extension tube)

With the camera pointing straight down, it was nice to be able to fold the LCD 
upwards
to make it easier to see. This was fine for the viewing (and live view), 
however,
due to the orientation of the camera, the menus are upside down ...

I guess there is no setting to rotate the LCD-display 180 degrees, is there?

I could not find anything in the menus or manual about it ...

TIA, JvW
