The PPG is no longer supported by Pentax. People have stopped posting and voting so I presume it will eventually die
Hi
The last time I was on I got a error saying
They hadn’t paid for the web hosting
I haven't had that and uploading has been as slow as it ever was - but things don't look good for sure.

Yes, 4100. Why do you ask?

What do you know...I tried sensor clean and it seems to have cleared it, at least for now. Here's hoping )

Thanks John - I was already on V1.07. Tried the reset and fresh battery - no change but worth considering of course.

cheers

After a decade and 6 DSLRs including DL, K10, 2xK7, K5 and iis I finally have a problem. Lucky? 4100 actuations and pretty mint condition but since yesterday the mirror only partially retracts from its rest position. Has anyone experience of this and the likely cost of repair - it's well out of warranty.

cheers for any help

a few months ago I bought an MX on ebay for the 28mm lens attached, a gap in my prime set-up. it's taken a while, but after a bit of research I find it is the second type of M28, f2.8 as here: http://kmp.bdimitrov.de/lenses/primes/wide-angle/M28f2.8-ii.html

it seems they are rare enough to only appear for sale every few years! has anyone got any experience with owning/selling/operating one of these? And care to hazard a guess at value?

cheers
