I think I'll make it to the Southampton one - what's a 'Digital Photo and Optics Show' I wonder...

16-50mm s/n 9028666 so probably about 10-12mths old. It was a used item so I do not know previous history. SDM just stopped working and nothing I did would bring it back to life.

My first impression of SDM has not been good as the SDM failed on my 16-50mm two days after I got it. It was, however, a used item purchased from a decent store (LCE London) and it was returned and was the SDM replaced within 5 days at no charge to me.

I'm assuming that only Pentax UK can do the repair work? If so then they can manage a swift turnaround.

Apart from Matt nobody has mentioned LCE (London Camera Exchange), so I will.
I've only had good service from them (Fareham/Guildford/Strand), and are my only local store to stock Pentax. Many are Pentax Pro dealers which give extended warranty.

The SDM motor in my (2nd hand) DA*16-50 failed soon after purchase and they had it fixed and returned within 5 days, which was great.


SRS are also great, but that goes without saying, so I didn't really need to say so....

Whaaaat! I thought this forum/amin had cleared out Heathrow of any 12-14mm's. Oh well I've just won a Pentax one so it's too late for me to be too concerned.

Well my colleague didn't manage to get one for me so I guess I've now missed the boat on this.

Will the Samsung lenses now follow? It will be interesting to see how independant of Pentax Samsung really is...
