as he gets his next delivery which is expected for late this or early

...sad news, but looks like you're not alone, there are lots of reports
about problems in the hi-end Pentax stuff. I remember this happening
with the 16~50 2.8 - centering problems during some photozone test.
Any new product is likely to have issues, and any hi-end quality control

Luiz, it is not clear how wide spread the K-7 will become in Israel.
Presently, no store shows it. I got it on a very special order. It is
therefore possible that if I cancel my order, I will be left without
the camera. I am thinking that I might want to take the risk and if
indeed it proves

I was under the impression your K-7 would come from BH anyway... Boris,
I was happy with the LX for a lng time before others came creeping
to BR. I don't think they happened to be sold here, and by here I mean
Sao Paulo, very far away from my hiding places.

Hi guys.
After some deliberation I decided to shell $250 for brand new FA
50/1.4 for my daughter. It arrived some days ago, and it says made in
Vietnam. Now, I don't have anything against it except that this lens
is soft at f/8 outdoors focused manually by the split screen. It is
going back to BH

Welcome to your new position at Pentax Quality Control. You won't won't
get paid, won't even be supplied with human resources' phone number, let
alone a direct line to a production engineer, but you can end the day
with a warm glow from a job well done.

Old Pentax lenses are of exceptional build quality.
New ones are also great (next thing I will buy will be 50-250mm, not
sure when though), but there are some bad samples.
It happens embarrassingly often.
Same with bodies: my second copy of K7 works flawlessly so far...
