Can't answer as to quality control. For my own personal experience: *ist D X 2 - both with over 50K exposures, both still work. 1 K10D about 25K exposures - still works. 1 K20D about 17K exposures - still works. 1 K-x about 15K exposures - still works.
Seems to be about the opposite experience to yours. -- Best regards, Bruce Wednesday, June 2, 2010, 10:42:34 PM, you wrote: M> My K-100 lasted a couple of years before starting to reboot intermittently M> and Pentax said it needed the circuit board replaced.
