Fifty ways to leave your Pentax gear
To all: thanks for the support, advice, and thoughts!
To mee: Mad props for the creativity!
I looked into it and found out that I can add 5-year warranties for the new lenses I just got (with the K-1), for not a whole lot of money. Same company that Adorama uses for their camera body warranties (New Leaf) has an aftermarket way of adding warranties. I just did that, and now most of my priciest glass will be (hopefully) headache free for 5 years.
Not much I can do about the 150-450, which I bought nearly a year ago. I'll get it fixed as an 11th hour warranty repair, and then hope for the best. Perhaps if I don't actually use the zoom functionality in the future...
