I have a K 50 which won't work with the rechargeable battery any more, but currently works fine with AA batteries. I guess I'm looking at this repair somewhere down the line... But, my camera has another fault, where sometimes everything freezes after switching on the camera. None of the buttons respond, and the screen remains illuminated. Removing the battery is the only way to switch off the camera. Is this a symptom of the faulty solenoid, or do I have another unrelated problem with my camera?

My K50 has developed the faults described in this thread, namely camera controls freezing, and more recently, the mirror freezing (or flopping?). The shutter count is 7000 approx. The camera was bought used, and is out of warranty. The problems only occur when the lens is attached. The lens is a Pentax 18-135. So basically, have there been any developments regarding this issue since the last post in this thread? Have repairs been successful? And what it is going to cost me to get it repaired, or should I just start again.....with another brand of camera, as I've lost faith in Pentax.

Thanks for the welcome, everyone! I will indeed ask, if (or when) I need help...... but I must say most topics seem to be well covered in the forums, and so far a quick search has answered everything :)

Hi all... My first post here. I have just bought my first DSLR. It's a used Pentax K-50 with the 18-135 lens, with a shutter count of 6900 :) . This forum looks like a great place to get info on all things Pentax, so I'll be checking in regularly, as I get to grips with my new camera...
