URGENT HELP NEEDED...!!!
This usually happens when you just unplug the drive from the pc (xp or vista) without the use of the option; Remove hardware safely. It happened to me once, and the only cure was to format it again. Lucky for me, I had a second external HD with all the data intact as a back-up. I won't make that ...

Even if you do format it you can still get everything back, the software I have is called 'get data back', it does what it says

K20d bright spot on images
A group of faulty pixels isn't acceptable so contact Pentax about it and see what they say. edit:typo Why contact Pentax? If it was mine I would be straight back to the dealer, they should be able to explain it and if it's a fault then replace the camera.

K20d bright spot on images
The software is V1.01. It is in the same place every time, or was, until I tried pixel mapping and then it changed to that funny line. The images shown are 100% crop. I have had another play this morning and tried the custom image settings and different ISO's took the d-range off, basically...

K20d bright spot on images
A mark on the sensor (filter) would result in a dark spot rather than a mainly white one. And the actual sensor can't be harmed by cleaning because it has a filter on top. The sharp and regular pattern of the object on the image indicates something seriously wrong with the sensor or electronics. ...

If the camera is brand new, take/send it back to the supplier for an exchange or your money back. It looks like a 'hot' pixel to me.

If you had said it came from SRS, they would have sorted it ages ago for you it could not really have been any quicker. They had a replacement back to me within 5 days of being made aware of the issue and that does not account for the fact that the post office failed to deliver yesterday. Mond...

TeleConvertor Query
Yeah its normal behavour. Mine doesn't recognise it either (1.5xTC and 2xTC). Even in the image EXIF it will say that I took the shot at 300mm, rather than 600mm with the 2xTC.... Having had my Tenko 1.5x apart i'm not surprised. The circuitry inside consisted of pins duplicating the connections on ...

Hahnel RF Remote control help
Amin there is a Canon (EOS)20D too. I think you are confusing to different animals and that is why it doesn't work with your K20D. Gwyn Yup, you must be right. But I bought this from SRS and specifically for Pentax K20D. They told me that it works with pentax too. And there was somewhere here in ...

Hahnel RF Remote control help
Hi I have just acquired a Hahnel HW 433 80 pro remote control from within the UK for use with my Pentax K20D. I did not fancy buying from Hong Kong despite the cheap prices. Last time I did that I suffered a spam-a-lot experience. The box says it is for all Canon DSLR cameras but a small red...

K20D focus mode switch, opinions sought.
I've noticed that when moving the focus mode switch from manual to either of the autofocus modes there is nasty sounding click. This happens as the screw drive moves into the outer position. It doesn't happen when the switch is moved in the opposite direction, i.e from auto to manual. Does anybody'...
