how do you explain 9:42 in this video:

just got my K2, have read on it for about 2-3 hours, and have a massive headache. lighting conditions were moderate at first, then i went into bright lighting.

question: is this just me "breaking into" the K2? or is this a permanent issue?
question2: would the 505 not have noticeably higher contrast, and cause me less strain? (as i've read)

i tried increasing font size, but making it the largest or second-to largest means i'm flipping the page every 10 secs. seems dumb to me.
