Originally posted by dadipentak Isn't it? I sympathize. My take is that most of the folks here who can spell calibration think this sort of thing is great fun and can't imagine outsourcing it. There seems to be no alternative for those of us who (correctly, based on years of experience) anticipate that attempting it would be torture, futile and probably counterproductive. Sometimes I feel like screaming, "What part of 'inept' do you not understand?!"
Oh Yes!
And I've done several different modes of calibration... I'm not 100% confident in the results. I want a company that is dedicated to repair and (I think) calibration to handle this. This is what tons of pros do with other systems (Canon Nikon..). But they have a professional services team. I'm no professional, I just want my camera gear as calibrated and sharp as it can be... by someone who does this daily.
Yet I post a thread asking about this and get every other response under the sun instead of directly answering the question. I'm looking for answers from people who have already done this (sent camera+lenses to Precision) to determine the value and quality they got from sending it to Precision specifically. I'm not looking for advice otherwise. I'm not looking to qualify my reasons for doing this. I'm not looking for other avenues. I just am looking for people who have done the same as I am considering to weigh in.
But I'm guessing not too many people do this in Pentaxland... hmmmmmmm.
