Let us know how it goes! I've many times wondered if I should send mine in as my warranty is still active (I think). I'm also in Sweden so any info on the process and quality of service would be appreciated.

Hello again! It has taken a while to send in my lens and get it inspected due to work/vacation etc.. But finally I sent it in to the official swedish Pentax repair shop, Kameraservice Kungsör. They came back very quickly with a conclusion that the lens seems to have suffered a hit somewhere (not by me though, but I bought it used.. could have been shipping or whatever..) and that they needed to repair it by replacing something I can only translate to "focus cogwheel" (probably a lousy translation..) For you swedes here: "fokuskamring"


Got it back yesterday and took a few pictures and I am very happy to say that the problem is gone!


Only bad thing is that the repairs cost me 1900SEK=220USD but still cheaper than buying a new lens. Now I know it I have great lens in perfect shape! The service from Kameraservice was excellent!


Thanks to all who helped out!

The coastline is pretty amazing and the mountains in Montenegro and Bosnia-Herzogovina are excellent for trekking/hiking. Interesting trading conversations about Charlotte and the NC issues with many and the Balkan perspectives. Regards from up here and more cards to load with 15mm images.
