Oh wow, ok. That is very poor design indeed I'd be tempted to agree that the grass is greener elsewhere but been there, done that...it wasn't haha. Lack of thought and poor quality control seems to be the plague of our times, regardless of brand.
It's not the fact of poor quality control it's the penny pinching. Not sure what other manufacturers do but if selling a camera with these ports, HDMI or USB why can't they provide cacbles to fit? I have found the usb cable from a Toshiba external HDD for the usb slot on the K-3, small problem solved

This is on "Amazon" link, if it's any use Stan
Thanks Barrie. Had a look at this and it looks quite thick, very like the one I had. SRS are having a root around to see if they have one that will fit the K=70. It's beyond belief that Pentax don't supply this cable especially as it's such a tight fit. All I can say about that in response is my next camera probably won't be a Pentax.

D is industry standard due to size. You either have a faulty cable or a faulty connector on the camera. Can't really think of any other reason it would not fit.
It was the amount of plastic around the plug that made it too big for the K-70 it worked ok in the K-3 and now it doesn't so could have been damage by mt trimming it to fit

srs would be a good shout
They sent me one but I didn't stipulate K-70 so the cable fit the K-3. Tried trimming it down to fit but hasn't been satisfactory.

Genuine Pentax fit HDMI Cable for the Pentax K-70. Bought one elsewhere but had to trim it down to fit and this wasn't satifactory. Thanks

Wish I seen this idea a few years ago (I wasn't taking photos of anything then) as off the Norfolk coast, especially during the summer there were always beach balls, footballs and somtimes even a dingy floating by, up to about 60miles offshore.

Date of last accepted 05/28/17 wish they could do dates English style

Posted and pending 07/05/17 then 07/20/17. I don't care if they get rejected but it would be nice for something to be happening.

Must admit have lost a lot of interest in photography as can't get out so much also have a microscope to play with now

Just checked PPG, nothing happened since July posting. Thought something was wrong with the new firefox, had the wrong bloody glasses on
