My brother just got an ist-D (from Ebay) and has a flash/battery problem. When you pops out the flash it will show a low battery alarm and fire anyway but without any flash. I tried to swap everything with my own D (swap batteries, CF, lens) and nothing beter. Tried batteries were fully charged 2000Nimh, 2500Nimh and AA Lithiums. They do all fail but only in its body, mine works fine.
Its serial number is: 5752412. I understood there are comon problem with the flash circuitry. Is that such a case? * Can it be repaired easily or should my brother return it immediately to the seller? * If it is a known issue, would Pentax repair it even outside warranty scope? Thanks for your much appreciated help. -- ---------------------- Thibault Massart aka Thibouille ---------------------- *ist-D,Z1,SFXn,SuperA,KX,MX, P30t and KR-10x ;) ... -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
