I clicked on that 7Day shop link and it came up saying it was for Konica/Minolta - are you sure it fits PENTAX K10D ???
Yes and the K20D.I clicked on that 7Day shop link and it came up saying it was for Konica/Minolta - are you sure it fits PENTAX K10D ???
Pentax did not invent a new battery for the K10D but selected one that already existed.

Knowing JR's moderator skills, perhaps he should be Secretary General of the UN :

Quite an eye-opener for me too, when I saw it! I knew that there was a general Canon bias in the photographic press (and I don't mean number of reviews - that's fair enough, they do bring out a camera a month), but this one took the biscuit. I still can't imagine how the magazine could justify such a conclusion. The link proved to be quite an eye-opener for this relative novice.

I asked the admin to add an introductions section where new members can say Hi even if they don't want to join in the discussion here - and they have added one, so hopefully we will be able to welcome new members properly in future.
An excellent idea, Gwyn and I am glad that 'Admin'. have acted upon it.I asked the admin to add an introductions section where new members can say Hi even if they don't want to join in the discussion here - and they have added one, so hopefully we will be able to welcome new members properly in future.
Before actually joining the forum, I 'hung around on the periphery' in order to form a view.
I am pleased to say that my initial view of a very friendly and helpful forum was correct.

I'm surprised that you say they're not cheap. I have always found them to be within a few quid of the cheapest (non eBay) box shifter. I have every confidence in Chris and SRS - you can talk to them on the phone and they are really helpful.
I don't have quite the devotion to SRS that most members here have but would prefer to deal with them than save ten quid.

All of my digital gear came from SRS (apart from my K10D body because they were out of stock at the time).I'm surprised that you say they're not cheap.

They are the best for price, service, speed of delivery, knowledgeable staff etc. etc.
If only every company was the same

I've used a lot of retailers over the years, and SRS are the best I've ever come across. I'd seen their ad in the back of magazines etc, but only tried them once I'd joined this forum, which turned out to be expensive!!
I've never looked back!
Their speed of service and product backup are also excellent and the prices are either unbeatable or competitive, so I rarely go anywhere else now.
Agreed - nothing more to add I've used a lot of retailers over the years, and SRS are the best I've ever come across. I'd seen their ad in the back of magazines etc, but only tried them once I'd joined this forum, which turned out to be expensive!!

I think that this is a very friendly, civilized forum and if anything that I have said gives the impression of a 'clique' then I am sorry.
The last thing that I would want is to be part of a 'clique'.
I just like exchanging views with friendly, knowledgeable, likeminded people who share an enthusiasm for Pentax cameras.

I guess that brushing your teeth at that age might be quite a daunting idea (I can't remember that long ago)
