Battery problems - help/advice please
Have you thought about going back to Inov8? http://www.inov8-memory.co.uk/batteries.php They may say 2 years but could be worth a try as you are only just outside.

Ozeck II Match Multiplier x2
Last month I was working in the UK and I popped into a camera shop and bought two things. A petal hood for the kit lens on my K100D and THIS:- B U T If I stick it on the K100D with the kit lens in manual mode and manual focus, it doesn't seem to recognize anything - the shutter won't fir...

Plugin problem
erg! Yeah, if you click on the button and it does nothing, it sounds like Photoshop is confused. First time I had an issue with Photoshop being confused, I could only paint in BLUE. Even in gray scale or on a single channel (which also has no concept of color). I do not recall exactly where t...

Hi Larry, sorry only just got back to this, basically as above advice. I'm thinking there may be a file sharing/permissions problem going on, but hard to tell without knowing the machine and OS John

K7 Faulty???????????????
After a year of problems with my K20D and six return visits to the repairers Pentax replaced it with a K7, which arrived today. I set it up in accordance with the manual. However, the first thing that happened when I turned it on was a request to input the focal length, rather than to set langua...

K7 Faulty???????????????
If that's a new K7 I would sent it back straight away for a replacement instead of trying things out yourself. It's sad it happens to you again :(

K7 Faulty???????????????
First thing I would try is to install the latest firmware. This might fix it. It might be that this has already been returned to Pentax as faulty and was meant to be reconditioned but never was. If that doesn't work, I'd send it back.

K7 Faulty???????????????
Factory reset, check firmware, try another lens, reseat memory card. Polish contacts, try a different reset. Go through each menu setting putting it back to default (time). Phone up, whinge, whinge, send it back, wait for another.

K7 Faulty???????????????
I've tried three DA/DA* lenses. I don't have another to try. I tried factory reset, two memory cards twice each. Contacts polished twice. Battery reseated twice. I've spent the last year with my K20 phoning up, whingeing, sending it back and waiting for another. It went back SIX times. That's...

SDM failures........
.........or not as the case may be. Quoted from a reply to a PDML member: "Just had a talk with Pentax Europe's former technical service manager, now 645D service (they will keep that in house) and I learned the following: - SDM failure rates are monitored and do not exceed those of other comp...

Help ! What is this mark on my photos ?
thanks folks - I have changed the lens less than half a dozen times and I am really careful ! It doesn't appear when I turn the camera around and take a portrait photo. I am still experimenting and taking most photos in auto or landscape - I then try taking some in Av mode to experiment. Ev...

Help ! What is this mark on my photos ?
I too had this when my Kx was new. It looks like sensor dust to me. A puff with a blower cured it and I carry one with me now. In case that doesn't work I've also invested in an artic butterfly for the future as Hubby also has a Kx. Changing lenses in a dusty old church didn't help. Don't forget you...

K7 appears that light is getting in from the viewfinder
I stand corrected then. I was not aware light could get to the sensor through the wiewfinder. John, my point about manual exposure was not well made. To clarify, the reason I use manual on a tripod is I have my eye to the viewfinder (blocking unwanted light) as I focus and choose my exposure. If ...

What should I do with my LX?
If the ME Super winds but doesn't cock the shutter it's probably not worth repairing. Jammed ones can be sorted out with a squirt of lighter fuel and a bit of gentle prodding of internals with a screwdriver (you're just trying to make it complete the cycle and return to the resting position). Th...

Backing up images to seagate expansion
Download the free back-up software from Seagate and do it that way. Mine are set to back-up at the weekend, but you can set it up do back-up as little or as much as you like..

Backing up images to seagate expansion
You could try the freeware version of Syncback from here: http://www.2brightsparks.com/downloads.html It will back up to any logical drive/directory and also to a directory on a web server too. Just install, configure and forget. It works very well for me, backing up to an external Seagate U...

Backing up images to seagate expansion
This looks good, but can you tell me if it will just back up ones images and then do incremental back up thereafter. Or does it back up all files of all types even if not required? Cheers Johna
