Originally posted by Fenwoodian I believe that Pentax will do what is needed to thoroughly train and qualify the technician (s) at each conversion facility. The designated K1 to K1ii technicians will either go to Japan for training, or a Japanese trainer will travel to the various conversion sites throughout the world.
I have little doubt that what you say is true, Fenwoodian. However, I also hope that they don't work on my unit on Friday afternoon.
The only question I have is wrt how long the procedure will take? I know no one has any accurate info on that, but has Pentax or Precision said anything about that? Reason why is I have two units (black and silver) and would like to send them in one at a time, but the window seems like it might be tight if it takes them forever to transmogrify these cameras.
BTW: I'm in the "this service is way cool" camp, and almost makes me think of the days before designed obsolescence.
