I have sensor issues with my K5, admittably not as serious as some people's. But I wouldn't consider any other camera, it's strong points far outweigh the fixable black spot problem. David

I also have sensor issues with my K5, and I'm still using it every day. I chose to wait until after Christmas to have mine replaced by SRS. Buy from SRS or another Pentax Pro dealer and get peace of mind with the 2 year warranty.

Maurice, I'd suggest keeping your cash in your pocket for a couple of months until everything is sorted, then go and buy what is the best camera in its class :wink:

Does anyone know the serial number after which the problem is sorted yet? I am planning on getting a K5, but would rather wait until I can get a sorted one.

All new K-5s are supposed have been tested by Pentax before being sent out, at least in the UK and Benelux. If you order from SRS they will check it too if you ask them too.
