Originally posted by pinbalwyz The ad hominem attacks appearing in this forum are neither appreciated or productive. As it was, shortly after the release and purchase of the K-3, Pentax denied there was a problem (told me they hadn't heard of it) and had no "cure". After all, why would they have a cure for something they claimed they didn't believe existed?
I posted my opinion of the product and didn't expect a hash of recriminations for it. What I DID expect (but didn't get) was an answer to my question about whether there had been a recall by Pentax for a range of serial #'s in the K-3 and if this recall was independent of the "warranty" period.
If my response came across as an attack or an attempt at recrimination, I think it was mis-read (I've mis-read replies here before, I know it can happen) - and, FWIW, I saw no other replies that were like that (really, I didn't). For my part, I was actually trying to be helpful. Alas, I can't help with your recall / outside-of-warranty question, I'm afraid, otherwise I'd have responded in the way you expected. Hey, all I want is for you to be enjoying your camera and photography, and it just seemed to me like Pentax had been a thorn in your side since last year.
As I said before, I hope you get your issue sorted or find a brand you're happier with.
