Re: Pentax K50- Thoughts and Aperture Block Failure

So, after reading about quick fixes I tried it. So far, seems to be working but for how long is anyone's guess. I know it is not a permanent fix. My options, just keep it and hope for the best, purchase a lens that will work w/o the problem interfering or get a different Pentax camera. The K70 would be a logical step but my understanding is that it too can suffer from the aperture block failure.  It might make more sense to me to get a used Pentax K3 or K3ii.
