I guess it must be me then....Though I'd be interested to hear how you can actually misuse an SD card....?

Yes the problem also happens with other brands of card... My solution is to swap to micro SD cards an use the replaceable SD shroud...

Having just had my 7th SD memory card replaced by Sandisk.. (Awesome Company by the way) All with the same problem. Electronic bit is fine but the plastic shrouds seem to crumble with constant use. I do use my K5ii quite regularly maybe 3 or 4 times per week. I was just wondering if anyone else had suffered with this problem ?

Though it does seem that they are now putting the problem squarely at the host device and wont swap anymore... please see there reply :-

Just maybe lifetime product guarantee, Dosnt always mean what it says on the packet...

We have seen that you have plenty of our products that all of them have the same issue. All of the cards replaced already as well as the one requested are broken on the top left or right side.

"I would like to inform you that we will proceed with a one time courtesy replacement of those cards however if the same issue reoccurs will be taken as a customer misuse and mishandling and a further replacement will not be accepted.

We kindly recommend to handle the cards with more caution to avoid breaking them as this is an extremely rare incident and the fact that has happened to a single customer many times makes us think that maybe the host device has something to do with it."

The Wansen manual triggers you mention work perfectly in manual mode. have a range of 20mtr. I also use them to fire my studio stobes. The draw back is. You cant remotely change their settings. Dont fire HSS. But on the plus side they are very very cheap... Every bit a match for Pocket Wizard. We await the Pentax / Godox TTL revolution.

Have to disagree a little here. As I personally think that for graduated filters the "Z" series is the way to go. As it illimates the very heavy vignetting, when using the very wide angled lenses. Though for normal grad filters and polorizers. I prefer round screwin ones. With step down rings to smaller diameter lenses. As there is far less light leakage.

Cant do a comparison But I love my Tamron 28-75. Never go anywhere without it. If the Pentax lens is better then it is some lens...
