I agree . If I were a professional it would be cost effective to use pentax in most cases.
I would buy a new body every year and it would be considered a minimal business expense.
Since this is just a hobby to me and I have backup cameras(K-5 k-10d). It really isn't a big deal as long as they eventually make it right .
But it is frustrating dealing with the silly nonsense (It takes me a good year to save up for a new camera or lens)
Buying a new camera instead of a lens I want because they can not repair a camera is crazy
.
I like pentax cameras and I do not want to switch. So I guess the answer is vent on pentax forum and suck it up.
