When trying to access the debug menu I get stuck with this message (pic one) if I cancel this out by using the menu button I can only get this far in the debug mode (pic 2)
This is the K100D
Any help much appreciated!
Thanks
Randy

Pentax should be offering screwdrive conversion free as an option to their pathetic SDM design issues

You have to be careful which editor you pick. Most simple editor saves as a .txt file which is something you don't want to do

Like uncle says, edit the file with a program called notepad+++ it's fast and easy.

I don't own it and can't seem to come up with a price that if I buy it, I can resell and make a bit of cash.
what would you consider a fair offer for this lens?
thanks so far

Good stuff!
I find my 50-135mm micro hunts occasionally but like you said better than no auto focus at. Couple of years I am going to get it repaired when I know it will be a better sdm
Cheers

Yes I used the k100d. Once someone on this thread told me how to access the debug menu it was not hard at all. Likely the k100 would be a good investment if you are looking at buying more sdm lenses in the future.
Did you try the "holding down both the + - button and the info button at the same time and start the camera. Then within 5 seconds push menu menu info?
You also have to download notepad ++

awesome awesome awsome!!!
once I could get in the true debug menu on the k100 it unloaded the file, edited the file in notepad++ and wow that was it!
thanks very very much everyone for the help!
I think I am going to get the sdm fixed but in a couple of years when I know that they have a better design
cheers

Does this work with either the kx, k100 or the k5iis? (*50-135)
I can only get as far as a splash screen telling me the file numbers, with debug in the corner. that last a couple of seconds then "PC vendor" appears and that is far as I can get it. can only get this far with pktether..,., with just the sd card I get the red light that lights up 2x and then just a black screen.
thanks

Thanks very much!
It seems clearer now and with this hopefully once I open the file it will make more sense :)

this is the part that confuses me:
Then change the code "C0" by "80" in the colonn 03,for the following lines
-* 0020
-* 0060
-* 00A0
-* 00E0
-* 0120
-* 0160
-* 01A0
-* 01E0
-* 0220
-* 0260
-* 02A0
-* 02E0
-* 0320
-* 0360
-* 03A0
-* 03E0
what should the modified line look like after you change C0 by 80?
800020 for example on the first line?
thanks
