HI All
I've recently posted (see
https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/pentax-k-5-forum/162641-repaired-k5-viewfinder-dust.html)having had my K5 returned from the UK service centre.
I'm wondering if anyone can shed any light on the repair note that was returned along with the camera, which reads:
REPLACED SHUTTER BLOCK - MIRROR MOTOR ASSY - BO FPC - GENERAL CLEAN, CHECK AND TEST
Now obviously I'm fine with the general clean, check and test (though I'm not convinced about the clean being as I have dust stuck in the viewfinder!)
But, I've got a couple of questions which I thought someone might be able to help out with regarding the other things:
1 - Can anyone tell me what BO FPC means (can't find anything on Google). I can find the following on the forums: PCB - printed circuit board
FPC - Flexible PCB, but not sure what BO stands for!
2 - Can anyone tell me what effect the 'replaced shutter block' would have on shutter count for the camea? Would it reset it? I've checked photos taken since having the camera back and the shutter count carries on from where it left off. I'd have assumed that a 'replaced shutter block' would reset the count, but I guess i'm wrong?!
If anyone has any clues then I'd love to hear them
Thanks in advance, and happy shooting to all :-)
Sam
