Hey guys, I have been very busy for the past 6 months and didn't use this lens for at least 8 months. I decide to take it out today and no response, no auto focus at all, sdm or screwdrive.
When I hold down the AF button (on the K20D), the manual focus indicator comes on inside the viewfinder, so the camera think the lens is on manual.. I played with the AF switch on the lens but still no response.
I also tried it on my K10D back up but same story.
It makes me really mad because I bought it in august 2007, at BH Photo, so I guess it's out of warranty now. I'm gonna have to pay to repair a $800 lens I used a very small amount of time.
What are my options ? Just send it to Pentax repair center? How much is it gonna cost ?
I read in another thread about some "Eric" that fixes Pentax equipment, does he do new SDM lenses too ?
Thanks for your help.
