As I posted before, my camera's on board flash blew the second day I had it. Sent it in to Pentax and they've had it since Jan 2nd. I learned today that they were going to replace the camera, not repair it. Unfortunately I also learned that it may take more than two more weeks until they ship me my replacement
Their website for tracking the repair process only showed my status as in progress. I had to call to get the additional information. I also will have to call to find out when it actually ships out. They do no notifications. I would have hoped that they'd at least be able to post the shipped date and tracking info.
In the meanwhile, I've been able to obtain a Sigma EF 500 DG Super, a nice ProMaster System 1 tripod and three way head, some SD cards and an additional camera battery.
I am so anxious to get the body back. . .
So how many others have had to have their K10D replaced, either by Pentax or their local dealer? Also, what was the original reason for the replacement, e.g. defective flash, etc?
