Did you send it for a repair or for a cleanup?! If it is the former, why should they do the latter? ;-) I hope they would at least repair mine (17-70/4).. as it's been on the part hold (the circuit board) for almost 6 weeks. I don't think I'll get it back within this decade, but I am hopeful for the next year... The most frustrating thing is that it is open-ended. They claim that Pentax USA cannot get information from the headquarters in Japan about an estimate for the parts to be shipped. If that's true, - Pentax USA is in big ... well, has a big problem. I wrote to Ned Bunnell via comment on his blog. The comment was not let to the blog, and Mr. Bunnell didn't bother to respond. I guess it is's too common for them, - too many users are frustrated about their lenses not being repaired, - especially since the recent SDM lenses are known to have problems. Good recent bodies, - but problems with the lenses (and the customer service), - Pentax just cannot do all at the same time...
