Warning, slightly obsessive post.
I posted this over at pentaxforums.com as well but would like to see
if any of you have ever encountered something similar.
I just got a new K20D as an upgrade for my K10D. One thing I noticed
right off as a difference, is that the focus indicator lights on the
K20D are slightly lower than on the K10D.
By way of illustration, here is sort of what I see when it is set to
the center point. The dash and the underscore represent the indicator
light.
K10D ( - ) K20D ( _ )
Another data point is that, with the viewfinder firmly planted, if I
move my eye slightly toward the far left indicator light it
disappears. If I am looking straight ahead I am able to see this
light. Again this is a stark contrast to my K10D in which all the
lights are bright on consistent no matter where I look in the
viewfinder.
It seems like something is misaligned. Could it simply be the focus
screen? Visually the focus screen seems OK, lines are straight etc.
Nothing seems out of whack with the actual auto focus so I've half a
mind to just disable the superimposed indicator lights. I pretty much
just use the center point anyway.
