Hi All,

Hoping to get some advice re an intermittent fault on my K5II which for some reason on occasion refuses to show images when the playback button is pressed. I have alternatively tried removing and replacing the battery which did resolve the problem once but has so far failed to work again. I have also tried different SD cards but the fault persists. The images are definitely on the card as I can view them on my laptop but the K5II refuses to display them on the LCD. I have also tried a factory reset to no avail.

The camera is thankfully still under warranty with SRS but I was hoping someone on the forum might have a solution or at least knowledge of this fault.

To clarify, once having taken a photo, the image is shown on the LCD screen but after the preview time of 5 seconds I can no longer access the image.

Many thanks for your time.

Lens arrived safely, well packed and in mint condition - many thanks

Many thanks for your response, I have looked at the DIY option, which although totally functional looks too industrial for my taste so it looks like I'm off to Ebay.

Still keen to buy one off a member if there is a spare or unused "L" plate out there.

I suspect this is a wasted cause, but thought I would give it a go.

If any member has a spare or indeed a little used "L" Plate bracket they would like to sell, I am your man

David,

It appears the factory reset and latest firmware upgrade has done the trick as have not had any issues since I last posted on this topic.

Thank you all for your help.

Hello and welcome. This is great site to further your knowledge and members are very helpful. Enjoy your new hobby.

Okay, contacts cleaned again for good measure, factory reset and latest software update carried out so now on V1.07.

I will of course let you know if my intermittent fault returns - hopefully sorted now, but i have no way of telling until I have taken a reasonable number of actuation's.

Thanks again to all.

Thank you all for your responses.

David, I am a bit OCD about cleanliness so I think I can pretty much discount electrical connections but I will try a factory reset and firmware update but I might have to wait until I have a more reliable internet connection.

I have done some searching on our sister forum and apparently by his exact fault has been replicated over there and resulted in a replacement camera being issued under warranty

I am hoping but he suggestions on here work for me as the last thing I want to do is send off my little precious for repair.
