Originally posted by qtopplings Actually, Christine never said this problem did not exist. She has said on multiple occasions that she was able to reproduce Jolepp's battery test. She just said it was minor and didn't really affect her. So before you start gloating, get your facts straight.
Can't we all just get along? Is anyone gloating about all the naysayers saying this was a hardware issue or Pentax will never fix it? Will some of you EVER be happy, or will you just go on to find something else catastrophically wrong with the camera?
Finally, someone who actually reads (and understands) my posts! Thank you.
Unfortunately, I was also one of the "naysayers" who think it's a hardware/design issue that may never get fixed.
And it seems that with this latest firmware the problem has been reduced but is still there, so it seems more likely that it will never be fixed completely.
So those that expect a camera to be "perfect" may never be happy with this camera. But it's likely that less people will notice the issue and complain about it.
Those who accept that all cameras have flaws and either work around those flaws or minimise the impact during usage will of course continue to enjoy their cameras.
