The clip on Pentax GPS is brilliant :-) But of course it's more convenient to have it built in. Also, it prevents the use of other hot shoe equipment, such as a remote trigger. I seriously consider getting the K-3II - or should I wait for the Full Frame body to appear ? Regards Jens Den

It is possible, assuming that the flash would only use 25% of full manual power on the 4 consecutive shots. However, if you are taking a studio portrait, I think we can pretty much assume that the last three pixel shifts will capture the subject with their eyes closed. (Only half joking there).

I don't see why you think this means it won't work with flash. I'd expect the camera to be quite capable of triggering the flash each time it 'opens' the electronic shutter. And, as I point out, any high speed sync capable flash is capable of being triggered multiple times during the 1/180 sec
