k-r viewfinder problem

Product: K-R
On the viewfinder pointing at the image for shooting we see concentric, overlapping signs like leaves of a flower.
- It's not disappearing changing the lens.
- It's not appearing on the photograph taken.
Is that a mirror/prizma problem?
Thank you!

Pentax K-R defective ViewFinder or Mirror?

Dear All,

I just bought a Pentax K-R 18-55 55-300 kit.
The camera is great but I have a problem on the viewfinder and I would like to share it with you all to understand if this is a defect or it's a "feature" of the new pentax cameras.

When I try to see into the view finder and take a shot I see a strange repetitive patter on the viewfinder. I see something like a flower patter around the center of the screen, many concentric lines around the focus middle point, transparent lines.

Imagine a partial "finger print pattern" repetead ad a radius around the middle AF point.

There is not a finger print on the mirros or the prism, it happens with any kind of lens and you do not see that on the LCD or on the taken image.

It's really an annoying pattern that take my attention while focusing of the composition of the picture or using the manual focus, maybe it is more seen outdoor.

Please, can anybody let me know if you see the same effect in the viewfinder before I send it back for service?

thanks a lot.
