Hi Team,
I got caught out when shooting some panos recently, bracketing in
manual mode my camera would default to bracketing Tv so the aperture
would change to bracket which made stacking images a little more
problematic than I would have liked.

Thanks Brian
I manged to change mine after a couple of attempts. It is far from
intuitive.
As a default I prefer keeping a constant aperture, especially for
shooting HDR sets

If you're in Aperture Priority (AV) when you auto-bracket it should keep
the aperture constant and change the shutter speed.
I've never had to resort to the green button to get it to do that on the
K20D & I don't see Pentax making such a radical change on later models.

Aahz Sir, my son went thru the same thought process, namely:
a) Prefer a compact camera with some capability of a DSLR
b) Viewfinder not essential- comfortable with LCD.
c) DSLR size like my K-5 a big NO.
d) Money not a very big issue - can spend up to CAD 650
e) Decent video capability as an add o

Not an entirely accurate assumption - unless (1)you never buy any other
Pentax cameras, (2)you throw away all your Pentax equipment at the end
of five years, (3)*ALL* the photography you're doing with your current
equipment continues as is and you *NEVER* use the Pentax equipment for
photograph
Aahz, the primary oversight in your calculation is the apparent assumption that
your gear will go to $00.00 in value after some number of years.
A second possible mistake in your calculation is the notion that your gear has
value only during the hours it is being used. You can't get image files

Not really -- I've learned from painful experience that getting rid of
photo equipment is a big hassle (

My take would be if that's the system you want look at capabilities, not
actual lenses. You could save a bit by getting a used DA 16-50mm a very
good lens, assuming you're going to want the extra reach of 60-250 which
will cover the middle to long telephoto range and look for a good used A
