What should I send back?

SRS asked for just the body of my 5iis when it went back for mirror not lifting and displaying Battery Depleted on the rear screen even though it had a fully charged battery. A brand new replacement arrived a few weeks later. :D:D Just the body has been packed!

DPI woes, how do I sort this please?

We need to be sure of our terms first. ppi is Pixels per inch and refers to the sizing of the file in the camera and in software such as Photoshop. Some Pentax cameras are set at 72ppi, some at 300ppi, but the image size is also related to this. A 72ppi image would be huge in cm dimensions, a 300...

DPI woes, how do I sort this please?

Do you still have the files that you uploaded to picture monkey on your computer or a disk? If so you will still be able to get them printed Got some on a hard drive, but some of these I put on a memory stick. Will be able to get them printed, but I will still also be stuck with the same problem....

DPI woes, how do I sort this please?

Its one to add to the long list of clear explanations of the age-old dimension / pixel / dots misunderstanding! :D I will certainly study it in greater detail, but for now the first paragraph is probably the most significant ... it is clearly a highly size-reduced or compressed JPG version intend...

Stuck battery in my new K-5 II

I take it you have tried sliding the little grey lock back

Stuck battery in my new K-5 II

I take it you have tried sliding the little grey lock back I've been thinking, (dangerous I know) Is the battery actually in far enough to allow the lock to come over and close the battery door? If so I think it's jammed by the solid registration tag to the right of the circled battery termina...

Can't you just whack it against your hand to get the battery to slide out ? Otherwise send it back and play stupid - you put the battery in, camera doesn't work, hence must it be broken ? A pretty basic design fault, IMHO.

Stuck battery in my new K-5 II

Dave, there is a micro switch actuator which is now located in a cavity in the battery case. Do not use force to try and extract the battery or this actuator might well break. It`s only about 3mm across so something very thin and narrow might just sort it. As someone mentioned a while back you will ...

Another update. Pentax have written back telling me that this is impossible. They have also invited me to bring it in to thier local repair centre. I will be doing so tomorrow. I will keep you all posted.

Lost photos help please.

Got the disk back from the shop, half of them couldn't be saved as the person who did it said a lot of the files have corrupted. I had a chance to show some of my work to a church of the Christmas tree festival, now it's been taken away from me (as is per usual) and I now have nothing. A lot of th...

Lost photos help please.

I also lost about 200 photos I took on a wildlife safari trip in Tanzania. At the time it was 'the end of the world' but of course looking back it wasn't. Since then my photography has improved and those 'lost' photos would probably get deleted today as 'rejects'. I'm sure the same will apply to y...

Laura, yes you can lock the card. You would take the card out of the camera, after you have taken some pictures. On the side of the card there is a small slider. This is simply slid to the opposite end of the card to be the other end to when the card is taken from camera. With the card having the s...

645D 55mm kit lens focus ring issues

Hello, I have a 645D with standard 55mm kit lens. The camera has around 500 actuations. I am concerned by the loose and imprecise movement of the focusing ring. If I place my thumb and index finger either side of the focus ring and gently move it from side to side there is movement in each di...

645D 55mm kit lens focus ring issues

Is this something that has just happened? Otherwise I think its a characteristic of autofocus lenses
