18-250mm lens F-stop issue

I thought I would ask you this before posting the question in a forum, seeing you were able to help me with my last issue? I have a Mac and d/l my pics to I-Photo. When I am in info mode going through pics it shows which camera and lens was used. However, for some reason it does not show which lens when I use my Pentax 24-70mm or my Sigma 18-300mm, any idea why?

Thats good to know. I was thinking of the K1 at the discounted price, but I will probably just go with the K-1ii instead. Thanks for the input.

I do lots of landscape photography so I am sure I'll like it for that. I also hike a lot, I bought a little fujifilm XP120 16mp camera for hiking to lighten the load a bit but, I think I took it on one hike without my K3 and now I take both. I use the K3 with the 18-250 the fuji for video. So you got the K1 and upgrade to the K-1ii? How do you like it, is the upgrade worth it?

I use that lens the most and the 24-70...I bought that so I'd have something for the K1 when I get it...

Ok, thanks. That is definitely the issue. I can move the lever but it does not spring back. I can see the spring next to the lever. I loosened the screws and then tightened them back up again it seems to be ok now. One screw may have been a little to tight. Thanks for your help it is much appreciated!

Any chance you have a picture of what screws I need to remove and the lever?

I have a Pentax 18-250mm lens that all of a sudden the F-stop has stopped working. I have tried it on my K3 and K5iis with the same result. No matter where I set the Fstop all the pics are the same. This happens in AF of MF mode. When in AF mode the AF is spotty and doesn't always focus, possibly a motor issue as that sounds a little funny also. Has anyone else had this issue? The lens is 10 years old and I have tried cleaning the contacts, tightening screws, etc.

Thanks

Phil

One other thing, I am trying to view images using the HDMI out, can I even do that or is the HDMI out for video only? If so, then I guess my problem is solved, :)

I am on my second cable and have tried 4 different TV's. It's also a 10foot cable, maybe I will try a 6 footer if I can't get it to work. Thanks Ole and Johndav for the quick responses guys!
