4. Any stories of experiences with getting this kind of damage
repaired, especially by CRIS?
No but I've got a similar issue. The card door on my K20D is broken and
the viewfinder glass is cracked, I figure repair would be about what the
camera is worth. It's still usable by holding the door closed with
tape, but changing cards is a PITA. I keep debating weather to send it
in for repair, or simply put that money towards a new K-5.
The guy who fixed your Vivitar lens can probably get parts to replace
the card door.
The door on my *ist-D just fell off one day while I was walking through
the woods. Fortunately I heard it & hadn't taken too many steps before
figuring out what happened so I was able to search through the leaf
litter on the ground to find it (it would happen when I was out trying
to shoot fall color).
My local repair guy was able to get replacement parts from Pentax & duct
tape held the old door in place until the parts arrived.
