SD card & K-7?

Ok... just to provide "closure" to this thread- The card in question was a "Transcend" Class 6 16GB SDHC card, I took it back and they swapped it over for another, and gave me a nice discount on a spare. It's the main line they carry and they've not had any other issues with them... just a bum ca...

But why are you doing this? I can't see the point of saving a modified image back to the card. G

SD card & K-7?

But why are you doing this? I can't see the point of saving a modified image back to the card. G The images have already been transfered to a back-up source at that point be it a HDD or CD, it might just be that I haven't got round to taking them off the card so that I can use it again...it's wh...

K10D+ 16-50 - underexposure with Slave Flash

Hi! I bought a slave flash, & have tried it, but it gives very underexposed results... I have seen the video on how to use it, should be straightforward, but haven't been able to get it right :( Also, at a wedding, I used the 16-50 with K10D's built in flash, & got some very underexposed result...

K10D+ 16-50 - underexposure with Slave Flash

I am not using red eye reduction which would cause early slave flash All the 'Red eye reduction' setting does is discharge the pop-up flash a short while before (and in addition to) its normal pre-flash/main flash cycle. The first flash reduces (but does not eliminate) red eye by making the subje...

K10D+ 16-50 - underexposure with Slave Flash

The K7 works brilliantly when the integral flash is used to trigger external Pentax guns. Either with or without the camera's flash adding to the exposure. I was trying it out the other evening and it was fantastic. Do mean 'brilliantly in comparison with earlier cameras', John? I use the K10D wi...

K20D Focus Screen

Has anybody had any experience of their K20D focus screen just dropping out? It's happened to mine twice now, both times with lens attached. The second time the screen got jammed and cracked so I'm reluctant to replace it until I have some idea of a remedy for the problem.

K20D Focus Screen

Sorry Barry - not the most helpful answer as it has never happened to mine, but is it still in warranty?

K20D Focus Screen

The camera is under a year old, but I have not had it from new so i'm not sure about how warranty works in that case.

K20D Focus Screen

Not aK20 I know, but my K200 did that a while back. It reduced a walk for photography to a duck watch! I replaced mine and it's stayed put ever since. The shims around the screen were the only bit I struggled with but I visited and read their instructions. Hope that helps.8)

K20D Focus Screen

As I understand it, normally the warranty agreement is with the original purchaser and is not transferable, but Chris at SRS has under certain circumstances honoured warranties to se...

K20D Focus Screen

The original sale was from SRS and I spoke to them today. I have to wait for Chris returning next week for an answer on warranty. I've also spoken to Pentax and the new service company, in both cases they say this fault is unheard of so could offer no advice.

K20D Focus Screen

Possibly another daft question, but do you know if this is the original focus screen or if it has been replaced?
