Hi from Idaho

Gooma · 08-19-2015, 07:57 PM

I found this site about 3 weeks ago when I was trying to figure out how to fix my SMC 18-55 with a bad SDM (like everyone else). I'm happy to report that my 18-55 is no longer just a paperweight. I love the lens again.

I do a lot of landscape photos, and I really like working with HDR (not the K7 onboard version though). I have a K7 with only 2 lenses for now. The SMC 18-55 and the SMC 60-250. Love them both. I'll upload some of my HDR works soon.

Welcome to the forum, so how did you fix it in the end?

I found the forum thread on this site that talks about how to do it. Here is a link to the thread: https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/10-pentax-slr-lens-discussion/208353-how-...ml#post3335807

Posting one of my HDR productions. This one is several years old, and I've reduced the size for quick upload.
