Last shots from my dearly departed...
Posted by Igilligan, 10-30-2009, 08:12 PM Igilligan is offline

My dear K20 died... RIP (repair in process)

These were from the last few minutes of her life... I had to keep removing the battery and SD card, and pulling the lens on and off to get these.

fine parting shots from old Penny and her good friend tammy...

Don't scare me like that I thought some one had died...... as it turns out your beloved K20D is only ill, This may not be terminal. if there is any thing I can do to help, just know that I am there for you.

I like the sharp, colorful "action - stoppers". I hope you get your camera back soon, Gus.

Thanks everyone

Thanks for showing the Love to my poor K20d and to me...


I will box her up and send her in tomorrow... I am sending the DA 40 in also to try and get the back focus issue fixed with that lens on the K20d

Wish me luck...

These are real nice photos Gus, thanks for showing us. Hopefully the repair bill won't be too painful.
