Here in Hungary the service gives an estimate for the repair costs for free. I would send in and while they evaluate I would check the prices of the used K-5/II and K-3 cameras.

Like the others, I would not recommend to repair the K500.

About the K-S2 coming with an "entry-level lens", don't be fooled. The 18-50 lens is a very good lens, a real upgrade to a 18-55 (especially if you have the first version "DA 18-55 AL").

But he's from Italy!
There you already have to pay by just just looking at an espresso

Anyway, his K500 fell down. Too much danger of further damage.
He anyway has an estimate/evaluation! And that is way too high.
