They are a nuisance that's for sure.

Probably as long as they were prepared to pay for it.

Within reason, things can sell on the second or third attempt.

Unfortunately for you Chris I'm not feeling that daft today, despite a persistent headache!

All the lenses I have are marked somewhere with the country of manufacture, or assembly, as the case may be.

It's very annoying, of course, but so far I think there have only been three comments on the new service. Two have been positive and one (yours) negative. It's still fairly early days so it may not be indicative of the operation as a whole.

I have used this company before and they were very quick, but that could have been a one-off as well.

If they don't have the parts I wonder who will?

Modern zooms don't hold the focus point very well when zooming, so it's really best to focus after zooming.

You could try cleaning the contacts. Of course it's so long since I used manual focus lenses that I might just be wrong.

None of the manual focus Ka mount lenes I have register the focal length
Pentax ones should do, in the context of the the SR system not asking you what the focal length is.

The EXIF is another matter.

Perhaps start off by cleaning the contacts on the lens and the camera body to see if that clears the problem.
