I have a feeling that this post may sound familiar, but please bear with me :-)
I am having a sad Pentax month. The long-serving K1000 is dying (probably just needs a bit of TLC if not CLA)... the MX I bought recently arrived with serious shutter and focusing issues.... but the tear jerker for me is that the LX I got from the US that was in "perfect working order" arrived with the dreaded infinity focussing issue. Don't think it's 'sticky shutter' as such but obviously the mirror is out of whack. The closer to infinity, the more the focussing is out.
Problem is that I am in Australia so options are a bit limited. The tech I usually use has quoted me $400 to repair which I can't afford right now. One option would be to send it to Eric (and hope it doesn't cost that much) or the other would be write it off and start again. DIY fix feasible?
Any advice form you Pentax gurus? Thanks heaps in advance.
David
