What have I done?
Help please! The other day I set the camera, a K5, to shoot with bracketing the shot. Ever since then back on single shot, the camera takes its time to reproduce the image on the LCD, it shows an hourglass. It never did this before. I have reset evrything back to the original setup and it still...

What have I done?
Have you got "lens correction " turned on (screen 1 of the record menu)? I found that this slows mine down considerably. It is not obvious if this is turned on in the menu. You have to go into "Lens correction" to see what state it is in. If all else fails, and assuming that is not how you put th...

What have I done?
Just to add to it...exactly same happened to me and turned out to be lens correction turned on for distortion and CA. As soon as i switched off it went back to normal.

teleconvertors
why is it that teleconvertors in auto focus do not work above a certain apeture and one has to use the manual mode to focus. the purpose of having an auto focus teleconvertor is totally lost. pentax needs to tackle this issue.

teleconvertors
Actually it's worse than that. The 1.7x converter is designed for using with manual focus lenses of f2.8 aperture or wider.

Cable release for K5
Hi All, Is the cable release for the K5 the same as that for the K10D. I have a homemade one which provides focus and shutter via a small twin+earth jack plug I also have a commercial one which provides timed/delay timed shutter release. When I tried them on the K5 the focus didn't opera...

Cable release for K5
There is [C-18] and it's set to 2. I have an IR remote which works correctly with this set, but not when set to 1. I was wanting to use the digital timer remote to set up a series of shots, and whilst I can manually focus or use the AF button to do what I want I noticed the cable remote(s) wou...

Why a K-5
Teetering on the brink shall we say Someone push him and end his misery:twisted: There is a strong pull towards the K-5, I have to admit, towards a Pentax again. The build, the looks, I don't think personally that there is a more attractive camera in it's range. That aside, we all want to make th...

Why a K-5
So your spirit level and low tungsten light focusing are OK then? Well mine certainly are, both were checked after reading about the problems on here, there's a very slight front focus with my 16-50 but its no different in daylight, its not even worth bothering with.

Why a K-5
[quote: What do you mean by 'fully sorted out'? Mine was manufactured last July and certainly does not need 'sorting out' Dave Sorry not to respond sooner - I am having problems with either my K5 or new DA*300 (or both) and am hoping neither have to go back. I am of course the only photographe...

AF point failure?
Has anyone come across a problem with the K10D and one of the AF points? Well I say a problem, but it's more of an inconvenience. Last week in London, I had my K10D and was shooting accordingly. Now if you can visualise the Pentax AF points (of course we can! LOL) The nine square cross haired...

AF point failure?
I had a slightly different problem - the (same, i.e. left of centre) AF point light stopped working. An irritation, as I use these points regularly for focus position (rather than recomposing), and for focus confirmation. I never sent the camera away or tried to repair it, as about three months ...

K5 cashback offer - anyone else had problems ?
I am beginning to get fed up. I bought a K5 with lens from Amazon and received back on 30 May and immediately sent off my claim for the £80 cashback by recorded delivery. I had a call on 23 June saying I hadn't provided all necessary info, as had sent a copy of order statement from Amazon and not th...

It really isn't necessary to post your complaint in every topic related to Pentax cash back. Especially not the identical posting in each topic. 4 posts, all identical.:roll:
