Pentax Sfx Auto Focus Slr 35mm Film Camera Body Refurbished Questions & Answers
Can we repair/replace the lcd of old film cameras? I have an old pentax sfx camera and its lcd does not work.
I just checked my SF-1, and the mirror will go through four cycles while
trying to load the film. You should be able to hear the mirror go up
and down when you open the back and close it, then turn the camera on. I
cannot get my SF-1 to keep the mirror up. Check to see if you have the
mode set to bulb, and that the shutter release isn't stuck down - that
will keep the mirror up until you release the shutter button or turn the
camera off.
Also look carefully inside the lens mount on the side nearest the red
dot. at the horizontal spot there is an internal button. It should be at
the bottom of the track it runs in, about 1/3 of the way from the screw
below the red dot to the lens release button. That moves up when the
mirror goes up, and down when it comes down. If it is in the up
position, you could perhaps try to gently move it downwards. It
definitely moves up and down with the mirror on my SF-1.
Why isn't my K100D Flash not working?
Hi,
please ensure that you've not used the camera for more than the advised amount of time by the manufacturer. Also, you can attempt to use the same brand/type of batteries as was including with your camera when you got it. Some manufacturers put internal fimware/software restrictions on their devices. For printers, this would be done for cartridges and in the case of your camera, it would be for batteries.
Lastly, I would check that your sd card isn't full before calling Pentax to refer you to a repair shop.
Thank you.
Pentax Espio 60S "E2" error
Hi for anyone reading this! My 60s was just flashing with this but I fixed it. Took the batteries out, swapped them and that didn't work. Tried to put the old ones back in a few minutes later and then it was fine! Just fiddle around with it. Hope this helps.

Factory restart pentex kr
Go to the camera menu. Select "Tools". On the last line of page 3 is "reset". That should put the Kr back to factory original specs
