Composition Adjustment in Live View
When shooting with a tripod, sometimes you have to readjust the position of the
camera slightly to achieve the intended composition. This used to mean that you had
to reposition the tripod and camera. With this composition adjustment feature, when
shooting in Live View, you can adjust the position of the sensor on the X-Y
direction as well as the rotational axis. You will find this great utility in the Rec.
menu page 2 at the bottom, Composition Adjust.
Electronic Distortion Adjustment
Almost every lens on the market creates some distortion to a point. You can rectify
this in Photoshop and most post processing software. With the K-7, you can have
the camera adjusting that automatically. I doesn’t work with old lenses, but does
work with the newer DA, DA* , DA L and D FA lenses. It corrects lens barrel and
pincushing distortion. Look at the Rec. menu page 1, at the bottom, Lens Correction.
Lateral Chromatic Aberrations Adjustment
Found in the same menu as the distortion adjustment above, this will correct lateral
chromatic aberration.
