Are they still the recommended service center for lens cleaning? or would you recommend someone else?

Hey thanks!

Hi Guys, been out of the scene for some time. Where's the place nowto get Pentax serviced? My K3 ports cover is falling apart. Also where do you buy Pentax stuff nowadays? Cheers

Hi Guys, It has been a long time since I posted and participated in the board. My da* 16-50 stopped working for the past few months, I was quite bummed out coz I like to use the lens. I sent the lens to the Pentax service center and was told it was sent to Japan to be checked. I was...

I forgot to update earlier. I also have a da 40mm xs . I am selling both the k-01 and the lens at $450. Separately I am selling the lens at $200. I am open to trades. I am looking at either the da 21mm or fa 43mm (we can discuss the finer details in meetups).

Hi guys, I just got back from a trip, did 2 weddings using my K3 and the pentax flash af540fgz. All I can say is that the flash performance on the K3 is a lot better than the K5. Where on the K5 you to need to know how to use and adjust the flash setting to get a proper fill in for the ambience...

I forgot to add. If you buy both, I'll let it go at $600.

Hi Feng Wei, Have you tried using the old FA lens with power zooms? It's listed in the specs so, it might mean the return of power zoom lenses. Plus any idea if it really does raw video? or just the codec ones?

No no, I don't mean that. I'm happy with 720p. But the one that takes the cake is the RAW option. I'm not too sure if it is an unfortunate layout mistake but if it really can do raw video ...... DAYUUUM......

http://www.us.ricoh-imaging.com/dslr/K-3 Well they put up the specs on the US Ricoh site. THIS got my attention -> Movie (resolution/FPS): Full HD (1920x1080, 60i/50i/30p/25p/24p) HD (1280x720, 60p/50p/30p/25p/24p) Quality levels: ★★★ Best, ★★ Better...

I'd just get the K-50, spend the extra cash on lenses, flash and other stuff. Or better yet, the K-30 and you'd have 1.2k available for other stuff. Coz people tend to keep the lenses longer than the camera body.

That is why I'm intrigue. On any slr, the leica m lenses becomes a limited macro but lets say if it works by using the recessed space, left empty by the missing mirror - that is the only way I'll know it'll achieve infinity focus (other than using corrective lenses). Which is why I wondered if...

Anybody used this before? http://www.ebay.com/itm/220937867132?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_1474wt_1392 Is it meant to be used on the K-01? Strikes me as interesting.
