I'm not impressed either, Rob. Thanks for reporting back - I'm still following this topic here and elsewhere.

Thanks for contributing, Rob. It suggests that my reluctance to send my *istD for repair may be justified.So in short no joy here.

Thanks for replying, John. It seems, though, that you may not have noticed that my camera is now out of warranty.All I can suggest is that if you have a camera fault then it should be returned for repair under warranty.

Hi there!
This is a first time post. I don’t want to revive the debate which has gone on in this topic, but I have a *ist D which produces images leaning to the right. I would like to read the experiences of anyone who has taken or sent a Pentax digital SLR, which has this fault, for repair.
Just for the record, I have had Pentax SLRs for over 30 years and this is the first time I have had this problem. The camera had it from new and I know I should have sorted it in the warranty period, but I didn’t. For reasons, which are too tedious to go into, I didn’t use the camera much at first, but I do now and this fault is beginning to exasperate me.
I’m quoting my own post above. There has been no reponse from anyone who has sent a Pentax DSLR, with this fault, for repair. Reading other forums, however, leads me to the following conclusions:Hi there!

1. If your camera is in the warranty period, it is simply replaced until you get one which doesn’t have the fault.
2. If your camera is out of the warranty period, sending it for repair is a waste of time because the fault cannot be rectified.
I would like to be proved wrong, so that I can have the confidence to send my own camera for repair.
