The internal flash bulb is definitely burned out. I really don't think it's a wiring issue so much as the light itself is gone. It actually does work fine with an external Yashica 3700 TTL flash I have. No problems there but I do want to get a proper Pentax flash as I'm a little leery of using the Yashica all the time. The voltage is supposed to be okay, but I'd feel a lot better if the flash was made for Pentax, I think. I also need an M42 adapter at some point in the next few weeks so I can use my Takumars but there's no rush. This lens covers most of my range just fine.
Okay, so it's not the K-x/K-r, K-5/K-7 camera I dream of but broken internal flash or not can you really blame me for jumping on it at $100 for both? Pretty little thing, isn't it? My very first DSLR and it's a Pentax. Sweet lens too.
(Yay!)
