Re: New Class Action for Pentax owners with aperture block issue

^ That sucks. That is the reason that I don't recommend any of the cheaper Pentax bodies.

^ Take a look at this thread. You can probably fix it, but it will require a bit of your time & patience. I had to repair 2 K-50 bodies with this issue. It took me about +-3 hours the first time fumbling around & about +-1.5 hours the second time.
