Dirty sensor on my K7. Help!
As above, there's nothing to be concerned about wet cleaning. The sticky hard to remove stuff is usually pollen. I have used, in the past, Eclipse fluid and pads. There will now be 20 or so posts recommending a huge range of equally effective remedies! :)

Dirty sensor on my K7. Help!
Take it down the Jetwash!! Haha, no need I have one at home! Thanks for the advice guys. I'm between jobs at the moment so any kind of expensive remedy would have been impossible.

His and Hers K5s
I gave in as well! Ordered from SRS yesterday... K-5 and bits arrived about half hour ago. Initial thoughts: menus are a bit different to the K-7 but more logical, shutter is wonderful, IQ is stunning, and even the 18-55WR is very respectably made!! LV is a huge improvement, dual level sensor is...

K5 number 3...?
Every high tech consumer product has a small percent with issues -and we are only talking aout a small percentage. The K5 has got over the main one - sensor stains - and I really can't see any point whatsoever in waiting for Pentax to learn 'lessons' .. yeah right. Canons & Nikons also have some 'is...

Around half the owners of early K-5s who frequent pentax forums around the world reported sensor stains That's not an accurate statistic, and we've been there before....

Even the focusing issue was blown out of proportion by people who don't actually know how to properly test for FF/BF. It only appears in very specific situations. No the focussing issue wasn't blown out of proportion. It's significance was very real. If anything it was under reported because of...

who answered the sensor stain poll That's a different statistic altogether and is the whole point. Only those who felt motivated to answer the poll contributed to the result, therefore the result is not particularly meaningful. Yes, there was a problem. It's been dealt with fairly quickly. If it ...

When a Pentax Full Frame
I'm very keen on my Pentax stuff but what a I'm really missing is a full frame sensor (and sincerily even a little better built-in exposure meter but in particular case I can use a separate one). Anyone knows if there is any possibility to have a Pentax full frame in a short time ? Going to 645 Dig...

When a Pentax Full Frame
I shot mainly Portraits and Fashion , not so many landscapes and others. I'm quite surprised when you say there isn't much difference between the K-7 and K-5. Did you try ISO 6400? :lol: I personally do not want a FF Pentax. The K-5 is perfectly sized AFAIC. If resolution is critical then Pent...
