Scott, I've left the settings on default so they were the same as the one in the shop. in fact the shop camera had been left on manual focus and I only noticed when I fitted the 17-70 after I took the above shot with my lens and it's still sharper than mine with AF. Prieni, I'm sure you'll get yo...

Poor Image Quality with My K20D

This is turning into a joke, have they extended April fools day. I had a call from Pentax yesterday and the technican told me they couldn't find anything wrong with my camera. But as I had returned it 3 times and that I had lost confidence in it, something I mentioned in my letter, they would rep...

Tel, Not sure yet if I would swap brands, I think I would be very tempted if I get another body thats not up to the required standards. The big problem is which one ?? Really dont like the quality of canon & sony and nikons quite a bit more expensive. That really only leaves olympus and their not c...

I'm not convinced that something would necessarily be sharp in your images if the focus was out of adjustment (depends on what you were trying to focus on, amongst other things), and it doesn't make sense that your chart tests were spot on while nearly all your real-world shots are no good. Your ...

Tel, I hope you have more luck than me. Im usually quite impatient but dont like causing a fuss. But 4 times is beyond a joke. I told the technican today that I wanted a refund and he said that has to be done through the shop I bought it from. Thats my next step if I dont get a new camera by the mid...

Some good news at last. Having emailed Devon Camera (DC from now on) on Monday evening to warn them I might be after a refund, I called them today. The manager was busy so I told the salesman about the latest fiasco and he took my details and said he would get the manager to call me back later. Wh...
