Hello, I have a K10D and it has decided to not read my sd card. The message of no card in camera will pop up when I turn the camera on. I have tried re-inserting it several times but no good. The card will read ok in the pc and tv set so that seams ok. Does anyone have any thoughts on what I should try?

thanks

Chris

Hello, I have a Pentax K10D and an old COBRA DEDICATED TTL D650 Flash gun that worked a treat on my old Super A. Is it safe to use on the K10D? I have heard trigger voltages could damage the camera?

cheers

Chris

Hello , thanks for the replies, I have actually just bought a sigma 10-20 F3.5 HSM and the auto focus doesn't seem to work.Hence my question. (I thought I'd better check before I complained). Apparantly old Pentax dslr's including the k100 and k110 doesn't support HSM which sounds a bit close to the K10. Maybe I need to update the firmware, something I don't know anything about?

cheers

You need to download K10D firmware v1.3 from here link There are instructions how to do it.
Thanks for that Richard, hopefully I can sort it out now.

Cheers

That did it, updated from v1 to v1.3, and like magic the lens works a treat. and very quiet!!

thanks again for the help

Hello all, Is the K10D compatible with Sigma HSM lenses, i.e. Will the autofocus function?

Thanks

Chris
