Use your imagination: How did it get there? How much more dust is inside the camera?
Maybe someone operated it with its covers open? Maybe the screen has been re-attached?
If you paid good money for it and feel like it doesn't measure up, Amazon will accommodate your return.
If it was a "smoking-hot deal", maybe the undisclosed damage is the reason why.
I have used my imagination. I can't imagine how dust would accumulate under the LCD. I have seen it posted here and on other forums but with very little actual information given. So, I know it is not that unusual of a problem and that I am not alone. I also know that nobody as of yet can tell my why or how it is happening and what to do about it. I don't operate the camera in any manner that is unusual. I own one lens so rarely if never take the lens off the body. I did look inside the body however to investigate and there was no dust inside. I have not owned it for very long. My images have no dust on them, they are nice. if dust is getting in there, and continues to get in there, might there be a bigger problem or flaw? That is my main concern. Also, for that amount of money spent, there should not be a problem like this, or any problems. It is brand new. It was not a "smoking hot deal," although it was a good deal.The seller has 5 star rating. I hope they can help me. If anyone else has experienced this, I would like to hear about it.

If you camera was purchased new and the dust is under the rear LCD glass, this might be a warranty issue to take up with the seller or Pentax.

Thank you. I have contacted the seller. I hope to hear back soon.
