Thanks for all the tips.
I just went onto that website and your right there are some for £69.
I could alway use my old lens.
Thanks Guys.
PS does anyone know if my lens will fit a digital camera.
Thanks

Hi There,

The batteries were the first thing i changed,
I will also be taking my little digital camera, I just thought since i has this camera i might as well try to use it.
The Pentax website appears to infer that £60 should get it repaired.
I think i'll give it a go.
Many thanks

With a wedding on the way, and a need for a little more than just a little digital camera, i dug out my fathers Pentax PZ70 slr 35mm camera.
Much to my dissapointment i found that the shutter does not work properly, at least not all the time. i found that when i hold the camera upside down it works fine. When i try to use it normally it does not work.
The shutter appears to not complete its cycle.
Does anyone know why this is? or has anyone else had this problem.
Does anyone out there have an idea of how much this could cost to fix?
Many Thanks
