Chapter 1 - Know your K-7 
To help even more, the K-7 has been given a Pixel mapping feature and any dead 
pixels found are fixed using interpolation with adjacent pixels. Brilliant! 
Exceptional Shake Reduction System (SR II) 
The 
K-7 features the Pentax-developed SR (Shake Reduction) mechanism, which 
effectively compensates the adverse effect of camera shake by approximately 2.5 to 
4 shutter stops, assuring sharp, blur-free images even under demanding shooting 
conditions. This innovative mechanism 
is compatible with all Pentax lenses 
ever produced. This new-generation 
version allows complete shift freedom, 
including rotationally of the image-
sensor regardless of the camera’s 
inclination. The mechanism also 
provides ser-friendly new functions 
such as Automatic Level Adjustment 
and small Angle Adjustment (up/down, 
right/left and clockwise / 
counterclockwise) to help photographers compose images exactly to their 
specifications. * Lenses compatible with this mechanism are the 
Pentax K-, KA-, 
KAF-, KAF2- and KAF3-mount lenses; screw-mounted lenses (with an adapter); 
and 645- and 67-system lenses (with an adapter). Some functions may not be 
available with certain lenses.
