Originally posted by Adam Sounds like the body already had something wrong with it when you bought it. If the cost to repair it is $250, then buy a used K10D for that amount instead
Thanks for the suggestion,
I can not own a k10d as it does not use AA batteries. I am shooting pentax for this reason, they care enough about adventurers to make cameras that run on AA. I travel too much and am in wilderness settings for too long to rely solely on rechargeables, but this has been discussed elsewhere on this forum.
I an not apposed to buying used, I am used to having to buy used everything. But i kinda wonder:
is it better to stick with the problems i KNOW i have in my k200d or better to risk UNKNOWN problems with yet another used body?
But good to know one can find k10ds for <250.
