Da* 16-50
The "conversion" is purely a matter of changing a few lines in lenses data file. So it can be reversed by changing the figures back. As there is no hardware modification, it is very unlikely it has been done to "hide other issues". ;) Maybe in theory. Changing the code values someone else has attem...

Da* 16-50
But for the Op's information. If the lens arrived and didn't work, it can be returned under the eBay system as long as it was paid for on Paypal. The time limit is usually 30 days. But that is better than many. True, operate out of the eBay system and you are on your own. If you want more piece of m...

K1 focus problem
I was trying the new 15-30 and I had a problem. It autofocussed fine with any near objects but when trying to focus on anything further away, the focus ran the the closest focus and stopped. Pressing the shutter release resulted in a faint click but nothing else. Initially I thought it might be a fa...

K1 focus problem
How does live view affect focusing? Maybe there's some lint or dust on the AF module under the mirror. You can use a rocket blower to dislodge small bits.

K1 focus problem
It appears clean. It's ok in single point and 9 point AF. Only doing it in 33 point. Almost as if it can't decide which one to use. Use an object in 9 point and it focusses fine. Use exactly the same view in 33 and focus goes to the closest point and stops. It seems weird as it copes with object...

K1 focus problem
Very odd. With 33 points it should be able to make a majority decision. I only use 9 point or single point so never come across this behaviour.

K1 focus problem
It's only just started and if anything even in 9 point it seems slower. :(

Screwdrive conversion service here
I am puzzled because there are no "site sponsor members" on PU and I have no idea what South American river is being referred to. If there's something somewhere that shouldn't be, then please make a report and we'll zap it accordingly. I'm going to have a look now, but if I don't spot it then do ple...

pentax K-70
I don't have the K70, maybe others can be more specific, but I don't think it's focus. I think it's aperture settings have you set the camera to use the aperture ring on the lens if they do not have an "A" setting. It will be in the menu somewhere

pentax K-70
Activate "using aperture ring" in the camera menus. Then you will be able to use lenses with no "A" on their aperture ring, but in manual mode only. Using lenses with an "A" on the aperture ring, basically any AF lens, plus the A series manual focus lenses, the camera will function more easily fo...

Hi I've just bought an Espio 60s from eBay. Came in box, with instruction manual but nothing about troubleshooting/errors It was advertised as excellent working condition. It loaded film great, took 2 pictures then suddenly started flashing E2. I have tried googling this to no avail, tri...

Kim, thankyou for getting back to me. I have tried to message you but as I haven’t been on the site for more than 30 days it won’t allow me to!

Memory card failure
I have just had a nasty shock, taking a few still life shots for focus stacking and using live view when the screen went black with “unable to process image”. The camera had seized with the mirror up, switching off and on made no difference. Taking the battery out and putting it back luckily restore...

Memory card failure
If it's the K-1 I think you'll find there is only enough hardware to write to a single card at a time, so writing to both cards is slower because of the switching back and forth.

Memory card failure
There was a debate about taking the card out to transfer data to a computer vs. using the cable a while back - the card reader method won by a large margin. Given that removing the card(s) is a pain in the parts, we now have evidence that they get damaged too. So what is so disagreeable about us...

Memory card failure
How many cards do you have at this stage David? I take my cards out, pc has a built in card reader, copy files to pc then card back in camera and reformat.

Memory card failure
Before I had a DSLR and now still for work I have used a pocket LUMIX which must be eight years old at least and I have always taken the card out for transferring images. It still has the original card and there has never been an issue. I think I will go back to the cable now though for the K1 and m...
