That rule is a European wide rule I believe. I know of a couple of people in the Netherlands who bought from the UK as they were fed up with waiting for the K-5 to come out here. They too had problems - one bought from SRS and is talking to them now about what to do, another sent his back to the...

Well have now had time to play with my lovely new k5 set it to f16 shot at white background and can not see any blobs...i think there might be one dust bunny but hopefully will clear as i use it. first impressions are very good indeed.

I was thinking to myself ... I would be more concerned about that scratch on the left hand side. Then I realised I had a hair on my laptop screen. :roll:

Just got my K-5 from SRS today (Parcelforce were running a day late unfortunately) and it is clean. Interestingly, as mentioned in other posts, the serial number on the box did have a large letter 'O' preceeding it written in pen. (As others have said this may indicate that it had been checked for s...

Pleased to say mine arrived this morning too (a day later than expected.) After charging the battery, which seemed to take an age, a quick check for staining hasn't revealed anything immediately obviously wrong so hope it is fine. It's a 39 series camera with a rubber stamped 'O' on the camera's ba...

Camera still seems fine. Weather outside uninspiring so carried out another sensor check. Really did think I had an issue with it for a moment until I moved the image around the monitor screen and the marks stayed put! Phew! Just a couple of little splashes on the monitor screen looking just like se...

Just got back from a 4-day break and am livid! Got my replacement K-5 on 30th December, a day before I left. The one I sent back was a 3865*** model and the replacement is a 3822*** model! It was clean, had a shutter count of 0, but some of the menu settings were non-default, so I was a little sus...

Stopher - have you discussed this with Chris ? I think it's rather unfair to let off steam here if you have not talked with him

Serial number doesn't mean anything. Silly question: where do you get the shutter counts from? from teh camera itself or from PhotoMe or so? Even places like SRS make mistakes some time, so it's possible there was a return and someone tested it like it was new stock because it was placed on the w...

Hi Chris, I am very sorry to hear of this and can understand that you are upset but I feel I must respond to this in the 'public domain' All of our stock was brand new from Pentax UK. We have never had any refurbished models and as you say the shutter count was 0 and the sensor was clean. Shut...

I'm annoyed with SRS too. :D:D I ordered a lens last weekend via the website and the response was 'out of stock, delivery after 10th Jan'. This was good because I would be at home alone next week and it could be sneaked in. But now I am told it will be here tomorrow so I shall have to make up an ...
