Dear Pentax Friends,

I'm doing less repairs these days, but still do little projects here and there. If you have questions, please keep in mind that I may ask many questions in return. I don't like to give off-the-cuff diagnosis...It is hard to know what is wrong with a camera without actually working on it. I have worked on many Pentax camera and others (6X7 & 67, LX, MX, ME Super, ME, K1000, KX, KM, K2, Spotmatic, ES, SV, S1, Auto110, and assorted leaf shuttered camera...Minox) yet it only means I just like to tinker... a lot! I have no inventory of parts, so please don't ask if I am selling anything nor will I have anything from my collection to sell... and please don't bother asking with dollar signs. My camera problem "suggestions" are, at most, just my best guesses. Any suggestions you might receive is in no way a form of permission for you to dig into your camera. Remember... Your camera, Your risk! Do not inquire for someone else... please have that person ask. Do not pass my suggestion/diagnosis off as you own and then then blame me for not getting it right... you know who you are... YGFY too. For all the genuine Pentax users and lovers, take care, keep shooting, enjoy your Pentax. Thank You
