Ok, got phone call from camera shop to say they had the replacement k7 come in, so went in took the flash with me too, tried it on the replacement and all works as it should with no issues at all "touch wood" so we changed over the k7 body :)

Yes i have cleaned both the contacts on the camera and the flash, have now also tried various lenses, and have now tried a af360fgz flash on the camera and have no luck with that flash on the camera either, the camera shop where i purchased it from have ordered me another K7 to change it over with, will see how i go with that when i pick it up, Thanks for your help people !

I can get the flash to work the way it should on a k10d and k100 but not the new k7, it would seem there is an obvious issue with the camera. will take it back to where i bought it from along with the flash so they can either replace the camera or send it off to be looked at

Have not yet called customer service, and as for results there isnt too much to post rather than to just say the zoom head will not zoom neither in or out as it should in auto mode as you adjust the zoom length on the camera.

Hi guys,

I purchased a pentax K7 and have tried to use this with a af540fgz flash but with no luck with the flash head and the auto zoom. thought this may have been an issue with the flash but have tried the flash on a k10d and k100 with perfect results so i have ruled out there being any issue with the flash head, so that leaves me to think there is an issue with the pentax K7 communicating with the af540fgz flash due to firmware, i am wondering if anyone else has this same issue, the camera is only 2 weeks old and am wondering if i should return it or wait to see if there is another firmware fix for this issue, camera in using V1.02 firmware at the moment.
Any help would be appreciated
