Pentax Investigates K-5 Sensor Stains Issue, AP Reports

http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk/news/Pentax_investigates_K5_DSLR_sensor_contamination_news_304445.html

"'foreign matter' lies under the AA filter and 'cannot be cleaned off'."

"'We are investigating this as a matter of urgency.'"

Well, I am still awaiting the official statement from Pentax and Hoya anyway!

See official Pentax SAV response here. http://www.forumpentax.fr/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1...

All affected K5 bodies, a very small number compared to the volume of K5, will be replaced. You have to send only the body (not the whole box) with photos showing persistant steans.

New K5s are controlled before expedition.

It is the response of the Pentax SAV in France.
