Donations are never a prerequisite for posting on the forum, with the exception of gaining access to sell items in the Marketplace. Please share details of where you saw verbiage to that effect, as well as the page that gave you an error, and we will sort it out. Most likely, you may have landed on a closed or deleted thread, etc.

As for your donation, it looks like you made it as a guest, so it was not automatically credited to your account. I've now applied it.

F11 seems to work for me. We've fixed a few of these reviews in the past, so if you come across others, please holler!

This should be fixed now. It looks like the photos were hosted on old non-https links, which was preventing them from loading.

Please let me know if you see other similar pages.

Love the concept of simplicity and an analog feel/focus. Though I think a digital camera without a screen would be pretty pointless. Just like the Nikon Df without video support- it's a feature that could have easily been there but wasn't, and it made users question whether that compromise was worth it.

Interesting. You'd think the situation would need to be pretty bad for something like this to be annouced. Then again, maybe they are just trying to look out for customers.

That's a nice list that @angerdan has put together. I don't think this number of threads meets the threshold for creating an entirely new forum, though we could turn it into a sticky in the general talk forum, which could be a nice place to compile resources on the topic. I still suggest that you otherwise start any other threads you might want to create in the general talk section.

Let me know and I'd be happy to stick a new index thread if you want to start one, or I can just copy the post above.

One thing you can do is go for the genuine accessories, such as batteries or the M42 to K adapters. These will almost always be better than third-party options, and have a high margin for Pentax, which is a win-win.

There are also several affordable lenses, like the DA 35, DA 50, or D FA 50 macro, which are not significantly cheaper used compared to new.

Not all USB cables are data cables, especially cheaper ones which are used for charging small battery powered appliances. I have at least a dozen of those from various gadgets purchased from Amazon over the years, and not too long ago I almost lost my mind thinking my camera was the problem.


I'd recommend that you pick up a new cable just in case, such as this one:
https://www.amazon.com/BRENDAZ-Micro-Cable-Charging-Transfer/dp/B09GNWFXLJ/?...ntaxforums-20&

There are also menu options for USB transfer mode (MTP or PTP). You should try with both, just in case.

Yes, they should work just fine! The FA is from the film era, and the D FA 35mm is just a refreshed version of the FA 35mm.
