So what are you going to do RE: Ricoh purchase of Pentax
I voted no.......etc, YET, I am awaiting delivery of a new Pentax 21mm, it's not for me though, it's a present for some one back in the UK. I will "field test" it here though before I take it back. Best regards

The pin is in exactly the same position as the screw that drives the focus in the lens and it's the same hole that it gets stuck in. The 1st thing to try if you ever get one stuck is turning AF on, it may just push the pin back. After that a thin feeler gauge might go under. A lot of the pins are...

Rest assured, I will check before I attach and grind off any offending pins. You'll take a grinder to your lens? Yikes. Just unscrew the screws holding the back plate to the lens, and you will be able to remove the pin. Much nicer than filling your lens with iron filings. G (Owner of a Ri...

You could try the other Pentax Pro dealers. Have SRS been able to give you an estimated delivery time?

Handle with care - these screens scratch very easily. EM

Also, invest in a pack of surgical-type gloves for installing the screen. They'll avoid any risk of grease or dirt from fingers contaminating the glass.

Memory card
[quote:3496ace15f="japers45"] What happened to "Just hold a Pentax..."? Oh Dear, John Riley used this tagline in a comp a few weeks ago (I was the judge) and I thought it was all his own work and much preferred it to "Pix Your Life". Turns out it actually was a Pentax slogan ! I feel foolish:oops...

Camerabox go under
That's our ridiculous legal system for you. Even the unlucky people who paid for things in the last few days will only recover a few pennies on the pound. Seems a bit fraudulent if you ask me, the operators of Camerabox must have known they were about to go under yet they continued taking payments. ...
