Pentax K10D users there is already a new firmware update for the camera. Pentax has released firmware update version 1.10 for this recent digital SLR that has already received wonderful reviews. In fact if I didn’t already have the Sony A100 due to my collection of Minolta Maxxum lenses, I’d be very interested in the Pentax K10D. The specs are impressive, the camera build is sturdy and the price is right within my minuscule budget. According to the Pentax update page the following function has been added in version 1.101. Wireless control of external flash through built-in flash.
2. Instantly return to centre AF point by one push of button in AF select mode.
3. Possible to change ISO setting by dial at TV/AV mode.
4. ISO setting change by dial while the ISO setting is being displayed on the LCD by pushing OK button.
5. Green button function in M mode is available at TAv mode (Hyper manual).
6. AV and TV switch by dial at P mode.
7. Instant return to the default value by green button at strobe light compensation.
The following contents have been corrected.
1. In rare case, vertical stripe at long time exposure.
2. Released “B exposure” and show battery empty sign when using B mode.
Be cautious when updating firmware and be sure to read all instructions before attempting this. Incorrect procedure could cause permanent damage.
