thanks Geordie01 I was wondering if id made a wrong decision in buying the Kr. I haven't found it to be the most intuitive of cameras to use so far but im sure in time and a bit more 'playing 'with it that I'll get to grips with it. have you got any useful tips which you'd care to share with me?

Hello im new too I've just found this group and thought it best t introduce myself
I've been using Pentax equipment for the last 20 years having started from film with a P30n and a sfxn cameras which were great and I've now finally taken the plunge to digital media having got myself a the Kr twin lens kit im not finding it as intuitive to use but im sure in time I'll get the hang of it My initial thoughts were that its got so many settings and features to check and use that it detracts from the process of taking photos, perhaps im just a bit if a luddite and old school in this respect but the lack o f film availability and processing has finally made me take a step into the digital world

apparently it can be resolved by doing the following
Here is the fix from Pentax. I had the same problem with my new K-r. You must clean the contacts on the lens and camera. There is a youtube video on how to clean your lens contacts.
