K5 Shutter Jamming

Hi David, finally got word back from the repairer who said that he was able to replicate the problem and would have the camera back to me in about 4 days. With any luck I will have it back for Christmas. No word yet on what the fault was but I will post that here when I find out.

Dave

Good to hear and glad its sorted for you.be ineresting to see what it was good news for you and just in time for Christmas

The K5 is back!

I sent my camera for repair on 18 November and it finally arrived back home on 05 January. Great to have it back and it is working like a dream. Unfortunately there is no indication of what went wrong or how they repaired it.

I will send an email to see if they will tell me something...at least it was repaired under warranty.

Good to see its back seems a lifetime when you are waiting mine has been great (touch wood) they may not inform you of the problem but just enjoy it and post some shots

My fault seems very similar to slow tours would love to know what problem was

Hi David, Pete and others,
I now have some detail on the fault - it was printed on the invoice that I hadn't discovered on the cardboard box...

"Repairs required: Shutter will not release and shows battery depleted
"Service Report: S/F New main PC board"

And that is it. So a new main PC board.

Lets hope that it is a one-off.
