Does anyone else have a problem with this camera changing position on its own?

This action(Centering on reset) can be set to on or off from the web interface. Simply go to (top tab) Advanced>(side tab)Other Settings>(middle window)PTZ settings and set it to "no" then hit the "submit" button

I don't have that problem, but what I do see is that the device reboots itself sometimes, which in turn causes it to go back to its default location. Maybe this is what is happening with you?

Happened to me once and I return the camera within the 30 day trial period just to be "safe". Spoke to Pentax directly, they advised me to return the camera within the trial period and get a new one. They did offer to try to fix the problem should I decide to keep the camera but that it would take several weeks. The problem with mirror flopping is an ongoing issue with this camera. You can read more about it on Steve Huff's website to get an idea how much of a problem it is. I do agree that it's a fantastic camera in general.

Haven't noticed that problem specifically, however, the shutter lag is horrendous on either alkaline or lithium and might be related as I leave the setting at auto flash most of the time.

If it is just a 1 camera then it would not go back and forth from screen to screen - as there should only be 1 screen (1 camera). I would suggest trying to disconnect and then re-connect the camera and monitor, and see if that resets it and fixes the problem. If that doesn't correct your problem, contact support at svat.com.

I never had any problems with mine, still works perfectly. On the camera, there is there is switch option, as enter the camers the switch is @ top right hand, you will find a a camera symbol click to switch to your desired option. If it fails you know its faulty.

It must be the lever film advance, it may be that you're not putting well when you change the film, otherwise I think it may be fault of the camera, if so you should take her to a specialist for repair workshop.

In my case, it happened the first day I had the camera - and that was AFTER I had updated the firmware (I didn't check to see if it also could happen before I updated the firmware).

You could try getting a new battery and make sure you have the right setting on your camera.

I'm sorry but I've never experienced this problem with my camera. Try contacting the manufacturer pentax.

Yes, i am using the multi out for power. I have noticed with this camera a vertical line that moves left to right. I thought maybe the power source, but tried a different one at 1 ampand still there. Doesn't affect picture quality tho. Maybe someone else has a fix for the vertical line?

I don't have an answer, but I would like one also. Mine has started doing the same thing a few months ago. I bought this camera less than 10 months ago. So who do we contact for answers ?

I think I solved the problem by moving the camera lens away from being over the sensor. I found that I had this issue when the lens was over the sensor but not if I adjusted it. Not sure if this helps anyone else.

This happened to me too. At first we just kept pressing the button on the right but then it began happening more and more often. In the end, we returned it and chose to go with the DropCam. We don't regret our change !

The only way I see this happening is if you have two monitors. If you only have the one monitor like me, You can switch from camera to camera in just seconds like i do. But i dont see it happening with the one monitor. I think this is the best camera system that they have to offer, because ive had nothing but problems with there other ones in the past. I also thought about buying another monitor.
