Advertisement Category: Want To Sell (WTS) Equipment Type: Lens Equipment Brand: Pentax Equipment Model: FA-43 FA43 f1.9 LIMITED Price (S$): 770 Description: Hi: Selling my FA-43, it's been bought for about 2 years but never really been well used. Sit in the dry box for most of the time...

Been to Emjay, I was surprised to see Kevin, I'm glad he move to the new company and we can still see the old friendly face. He checked the lens and said there might be a crack in the inner barer, and have to send back to Japan to do repair and collaboration, and will quote me price when it's...

Thanks, I'll call them and see how much they charge, if too expensive maybe I'll have to buy a new lens. I found Sigma and Tamron offers 4-6 years warranty, whilst Pentax has only 1, what a shame.:(

Hi: I have a DA* 16-50 for almost 2 years (out of warranty obviously). Recently I found it difficult to zoom, it "blocks" at around 28mm and I have to put the camera in vertical direction to be able to zoom it back; furthermore, it also stops at around 20mm and it's difficult for me to get...

I've been using this and pretty satisfied. :)

Bought a 16-50 few days ago @ Cathay $1150 Paid by cash but should be able to negotiate a little bit (I believe at least 2% credit card fee), but arrived just before they close so just grabbed the lens in a little hurry. BTW I realized there is some focus shifting on my K10D, went into...

when I first got the K10D GP edition there were... dead pixels.... So I sent it back and they fixed it. Then I got AF-540, it... could not zoom.... So I sent it back and they fixed it. Then the AF-540 is faulty again and... sticked to camera... So I'll send BOTH back to get them fixed...

my 1+ month old AF540 is really giving me a LOT TROUBLE;(;( I don't really use it a lot, but last week I suddenly realized it cannot zoom anymore and fixed to 13mm, after I tried on 2 cameras it was still the same, so I sent it to Shriro. The guys there were really friendly, they fixed it in...

Hi: I'm a new Limited Edition K10D owner and maybe can answer you some questions: AFAIK the only different between limited edition and regular version is color and shoulder strap, regular version also can update to 1.30 firmware. According to other member's post, regular K10D body =...

Few days ago bought the limited K10D now thinking buy the new lens, but called MS color and Cathay all no stock:( anyone has idea where to buy? How come still no stock?;(

Thank you, saw your posts on xitek, wow that told me what is a true "Pentaxian" :D:D Oh, got one basic question, for the lens focus speed, I think motor should be in lens? then why same lens got different speed on different bodies? I mean simple kit lens.... edit: oops, now I know it's...

Well, bought my set today for $1599 with no freebie. Actually I don't mind have the 2G card or not, rather go buy Extreme IV 4G ones. So far pretty satisfied, just a little heavy and yet to get used to. Oh, using rechargeable really troublesome, need to charge 2 batts after purchase, it...

I'm recently interested in this model but after I did some searches on forum I did not find any information on retail price and where to buy:confused: so anyone has an idea? Thanks in advance!:)
