Well, looking for images I have just googled 'Pentax stand at Focus 2011' - and unfortunately this thread is the first thing google brings up. So anyone casually googling this subject will be greeted with the phrase 'The Awful Pentax Stand'. For all our moaning about other people slagging off the brand, we do a pretty good job of it ourselves.

I agree and I've modified the title. Let's present the thrust of the thread more accurately.

Medium format moves more slowly that other formats.

The only other thing you might consider doing is to phone JP Service Solutions and ask them.

Hi Kris,

The 'sparse' comment was really aimed at the total lack of promotion & targeted advertising, particularly re the K5...yet again Pentax UK miss an open goal.

cheers Steve

In what area do you mean Steve? I've seen plenty of adverts and dealer promotions in UK magazines, tests have been done by all the players, Facebook is brimming over with stuff from Pentax and from Pentax User, PU also tweets on a regular basis, there's this dedicated pentax site, PPG and PentaxForums as well.

There seems to be plenty going on at Focus as well.

Where is all this sparse?

Gary, if you think your camera needs repair or adjustment, then why not return it under warranty and have it fixed? It's reasonable to put as the fault "front focuses in light levels under 4EV".

Did you adjust the lenses for one focal length and distance or for many focal lengths and distances?

I would be concerned that if all my lenses were in need of adjustment then the testing procedure might be awry.

The OP doesn't actually say which lens is being used.

If it is the Pentax DA-L 18-55mm then I found it handled flare pretty well. A lens hood will always be beneficial though and I think it's a pity that this essential accessory is not included.

Decided against IR in the end as I wanted to avoid the IR beam as we do some newborn shoots and parents stress enough over the lights

You can't see the IR beam. Only the dullest of light emanation if you look directly ar the transmitter.
