As I am too lazy to search what are the benefits to the Plus membership ?

If they do say its dead I would at least ask for it back

Sounds suss they want to keep the camera & give you nothing. But also make me laugh when people damage items ie drop them or such & thing it be covered by warranty , like saying I have a 2 month old car hit a pole & now I want Ford or such to fix / replace the car because of my fault

Hi just found this great site & have just joined. I own a Pentax K10D used to own a K100D Super with I cant say I loved would eat batteries like they were going out of fashion .
Have used Pentax for last 25 or so years ME Super K1000 SFXN & last Z1. Bought & sold too many lens flashes etc care to think about. Look forward to doing landscape sport & this time ago at macro. At 1 time I even owned a Bronica ETRS
