Care to be Taken During Handling
Before Using Your Camera
• When traveling, take the Worldwide Service Network listing that is included in the package. This will be useful if you experience problems abroad.
• When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a wedding or when traveling). Contents of the recording cannot be guaranteed if recording, playback or transferring your data to a computer, etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your camera or recording media (SD
Memory Card), etc.
About the Battery and Charger
• To keep the battery in optimum condition, avoid storing it in a fully charged state or in high temperatures.
• If the battery is left inserted and the camera is not used for a long time, the battery will over-discharge and shorten the battery’s life.
• Charging the battery a day before use or on the day of use is recommended.
• The AC plug cord provided with this camera is developed exclusively for the battery charger D-BC90. Do not use it with other devices.
Precautions on Carrying and Using Your Camera
• Do not subject the camera to high temperatures or high humidity. Do not leave the camera in a vehicle, as the temperature can get very high.
• Do not subject the camera to strong vibrations, shocks, or pressure. Use a cushion to protect the camera from vibrations of motorcycles, automobiles, or ships.
• The temperature range for camera use is -10°C to 40°C (14°F to 104°F).
• The monitor may appear black at high temperatures, but will return to normal at normal temperatures.
• The monitor may respond more slowly at low temperatures. This is due to liquid crystal properties, and is not a malfunction.
• Sudden temperature changes will cause condensation on the inside and outside of the camera. Place the camera in your bag or a plastic bag, and remove it after temperatures of the camera and surroundings are equalized.
• Avoid contact with garbage, mud, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, or salt.
These could cause the camera to breakdown. Wipe the camera to dry off any rain or water drops.
• Do not press the monitor with excessive force. This could cause it to break or malfunction.
• Be careful not to overtighten the screw in the tripod socket when using a tripod.
5
Cleaning Your Camera
• Do not clean the camera with organic solvents such as thinner, alcohol, or benzine.
• Use a lens brush to remove dust accumulated on the lens or viewfinder.
Never use a spray blower for cleaning as it may damage the lens.
• Please contact a PENTAX Service Center for professional cleaning of the
CMOS sensor. (This will involve a fee.)
• Periodic inspections are recommended every one to two years to maintain high performance.
Storing Your Camera
• Do not store the camera with preservatives or chemicals. Storage in high temperatures and high humidity can cause mold to grow on the camera.
Remove the camera from its case and store it in a dry and well-ventilated place.
• Avoid using or storing the camera where it may be exposed to static electricity or electrical interference.
• Avoid using or storing the camera in direct sunlight or in locations where it may be exposed to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
6
Other Precautions
• The SD Memory Card is equipped with a writeprotect switch. Setting the switch to LOCK prevents new data from being recorded on the card, the stored data from being deleted, and the card from being formatted by the camera or computer.
• The SD Memory Card may be hot when removing the card immediately after using the camera.
Write-protect switch
• Do not remove the SD Memory Card or turn off the power while the card is being accessed. This may cause the data to be lost or the card to be damaged.
• Do not bend the SD Memory Card or subject it to violent impact. Keep it away from water and store away from high temperatures.
• Do not remove the SD Memory Card while formatting. The card may be damaged and become unusable.
• Data on the SD Memory Card may be deleted in the following circumstances. We do not accept any liability for data that is deleted if
1. the SD Memory Card is mishandled by the user.
2. the SD Memory Card is exposed to static electricity or electrical interference.
3. the SD Memory Card has not been used for a long time.
4. the SD Memory Card or the battery is removed while the card is being accessed.
• If the SD Memory Card is not used for a long time, the data on the card may become unreadable. Be sure to regularly make a backup of important data on a computer.
• Format new SD Memory Cards. Also format SD Memory Cards previously used with other cameras or devices.
• Please note that deleting data stored on an SD Memory Card, or formatting an SD
Memory Card does not completely erase the original data. Deleted data can sometimes be recovered using commercially available software. If you are going to discard, give away or sell your SD Memory Card, you should ensure that the data on the card is completely deleted or the card itself is destroyed if it contains any personal or sensitive information.

• Features a 23.7×15.7 mm CMOS sensor with approximately 16.28 million effective pixels for high precision and a wide dynamic range.
• Features Shake Reduction (SR), an image sensor shifting shake reduction system. This enables you to capture sharp pictures with minimal camera shake regardless of the lens type.
• Features an AF sensor with 11 focusing points. The central 9 focusing points are wide cross area sensors.
• Features a viewfinder similar to that of a conventional 35 mm camera, with a magnification of approximately 0.92 and field of view of approximately
100%, for easier manual focusing. Also features a superimpose function in which the active AF point(s) on the viewfinder illuminate red.
• Features a large 3.0-inch monitor with approximately 921,000 dots, a wide viewing angle and brightness and color adjusting functions for high-precision viewing performance.
• Features a Live View function for shooting while viewing the subject in real-time on the monitor.
• Movies can be recorded by taking advantage of the lens properties. The camera can also output composite and HDMI video signals so that you can watch recorded still pictures and movies on a TV or high-quality monitor.
• A user-friendly design has been implemented in various parts of the camera. The large text size, high-contrast monitor and easy-to-use menus make the camera easier to operate.
• The body exterior is magnesium alloy, and the dials, buttons, joints, and retractable parts of the camera are dust-proof and water-resistant.
• Features the Dust Removal function to remove dust on the CMOS sensor.
• Features Hyper-program and Hyper-manual modes that let you take pictures with the intended exposure. Also features Sensitivity Priority
Automatic Exposure mode
K
that automatically adjusts aperture and shutter speed according to the set sensitivity, and Shutter & Aperture
Priority Automatic Exposure mode
L
that automatically adjusts sensitivity according to the set aperture and shutter speed.
• Features Digital Filters to internally process the image in the camera.
You can use digital filters such as Color or Soft while taking pictures or to process images after taking them.
• Features Custom Image which allows you to adjust settings while previewing the end result of the edited image, enabling a wider range of photographic expression.
• Records images in the versatile JPEG format or the high quality and fully editable RAW format. You can also select JPEG+RAW and record in both formats simultaneously. When the file format of the last captured image is JPEG, and its data still remains in the buffer memory, you can save the image in RAW format. RAW images can be easily processed internally by the camera.
• Up to five setting patterns can be saved as
A
mode. In addition, functions for the | /
Y
button and the e-dials can also be customized, enabling speedy operation by any type of photographer.
• Supports the optional Battery Grip D-BG4 with vertical shutter release button. If a battery (D-LI90) is inserted in both the camera and grip, the battery with more power is prioritized.

Shake Reduction (SR)
Shake Reduction (SR) on this camera features a PENTAX original system which uses magnetic force to move the image sensor at high speeds, compensating for camera shake.
The camera may generate some operating noise when it is shaken, such as when changing the composition of a picture. This is normal and not a malfunction.
The captured area (view angle) will differ between this camera and 35 mm SLR cameras even if the same lens is used because the format sizes for 35 mm film and CMOS sensor are different.
Sizes for 35 mm film and CMOS sensor
35 mm film : 36×24 mm
CMOS sensor on this camera : 23.7×15.7 mm
The focal length of a lens used with a 35 mm camera is about 1.5 times longer than that of this camera. To shoot images with an angle of view framing the same area, divide the focal length of the 35 mm lens by 1.5.
Example) To capture the same image as a 150 mm lens attached to a 35 mm camera
150÷1.5=100
Use a 100 mm lens with this camera.
Inversely, multiply the focal length of the lens used with this camera by 1.5 to determine the focal length for 35 mm cameras.
Example) If a 300 mm lens is used with this camera
300×1.5=450
The focal length is equivalent to a 450 mm lens on a 35 mm camera.

About the
J
Compared with the
I
, the
J
is superior in its ability to express the fine details, which enables taking even higher definition images.
Please note the following to enjoy the high resolution of your
J to the fullest.
Relationship between High Resolution and Aperture
When taking photographs in situations where the ability to record fine details is important, an open aperture up to an aperture of F8 is recommended to reduce the effects of diffraction. Try using an aperture higher than F8 in situations where false color or moiré are noticeable.
False Color and Moiré
While the
J
is more suited for expressing fine details than the
I
, false color and moiré are more noticeable.
For example, when sharpness is emphasized in Custom Image, the image may turn out looking unnatural in some cases. Be sure to take pictures while adjusting the balance between capturing fine details and image processing.
To check for false color and moiré, transfer images to a computer and view them at 100%.
JPEG Quality
If you are going to shoot in JPEG with the quality set to
E
or
D
, highdefinition images will not be captured and the ability to record fine details will diminish. Set [JPEG Quality] to
C
or
Z
as much as possible.
Camera Shake
High-definition images cannot be captured if camera shake occurs.
Prevent camera shake from occurring by using a tripod when necessary.

Using the Built-in Flash
69
Use the built-in flash when you want to take pictures in low light or backlit conditions.
The built-in flash is optimum for a subject at a distance from 0.7 m to 5 m.
Exposure will not be properly controlled and vignetting (darkening of the corners of the image due to a lack of light) may occur when used at a distance closer than 0.7 m (this distance varies slightly depending on the
lens being used and set sensitivity. (p.165))
3
Compatibility of built-in flash and lens
Vignetting may occur depending on the lens being used and the shooting conditions. We recommend taking a test shot to check the compatibility.
1
Lens Compatibility with the Built-in Flash (p.166)
• When using the built-in flash, remove the lens hood before shooting.
• The built-in flash fully discharges for lenses without an s (Auto) position on the lens aperture ring.
For details on the built-in flash and instructions on how to take pictures with an
external flash, refer to “Using the Flash” (p.161).

While adjusting the shutter speed or aperture value, the difference from the proper exposure (EV value) is displayed in a bar graph. The proper exposure is set when
V
is in the middle of the EV bar. If it is towards -, it is underexposed. If it is towards +, it is overexposed. If the value exceeds the range of the EV bar, or if the subject is too bright or too dark, the “+” or “-” blinks.
Difference from the proper exposure
• The sensitivity cannot be set to [ISO AUTO] in a mode. If the exposure mode is changed to a
mode when the sensitivity is set to [ISO AUTO], the
sensitivity is also changed to the lowest value set in “Setting the Range of
Automatic Sensitivity Correction” (p.84).

L
Multi-segmented Metering
The scene in the viewfinder is metered in
77 different zones. Even in backlit locations, this mode automatically determines what level of brightness is in which portion and automatically adjusts exposure.
M
Center-weighted Metering
Metering is weighted at the center of the viewfinder. Use this metering when you want to compensate for the exposure by experience, instead of leaving it to the camera. The illustration shows that sensitivity increases as the pattern height increases (center). This mode does not automatically compensate for backlit scenes.
104
N
Spot Metering
The brightness is measured only within a limited area at the center of the viewfinder. You can use this in
combination with the AE Lock (p.107)
when the subject is extremely small and the correct exposure is difficult to obtain.
Center-weighted metering mode is automatically set even if you select multisegment metering mode when using a lens other than a DA, DA L, D FA, FA J,
FA, F or A lens, or when the lens aperture ring is set to a position other than s
(Auto). (Can only be used if [27. Using Aperture Ring] (p.299) in the [

Using the Shake Reduction Function to Prevent Camera Shake
Using the Shake Reduction Function

The Shake Reduction function reduces camera shake that occurs when the shutter release button is pressed.
Ideal when taking pictures in the following situations.
• When taking pictures in dimly lit locations, such as indoors, at night, on cloudy days and in the shade
• When taking telephoto pictures
The Shake Reduction function can be used to reduce horizontal and vertical camera shake or keep the image level.
• The Shake Reduction function does not compensate for blurring caused by subject movement. To take pictures of a moving subject, increase the shutter speed.
• The Shake Reduction function may not fully reduce camera shake when taking close-up shots. In this case, it is recommended to turn off the Shake
Reduction function and use the camera with a tripod.
• The Shake Reduction function will not fully work when shooting with a very slow shutter speed, for example when panning or shooting night scenes. In this case, it is recommended to turn off the Shake Reduction function and use the camera with a tripod.
• The Shake Reduction function is available with any PENTAX lens compatible with this camera. However, be sure to set the focal length before using a lens for which focal length information cannot be automatically obtained. Refer to
“When the Focal Length Cannot Be Automatically Detected” (p.124) for details.

When the Focal Length Cannot Be Automatically Detected
The Shake Reduction function operates by obtaining the lens information such as focal length.
If the camera uses a DA, DA L, D FA, FA J, FA or F lens, the lens information is automatically obtained when the Shake Reduction function is activated.
Set the focal length if you use a lens whose information such as focal
length cannot be automatically obtained (p.297).

You can shoot a picture while displaying the real-time image on the monitor.
• The image in Live View may differ from the captured image if the brightness of the subject is low or high.
• If any changes occur in the shooting light source during Live View, the image may flicker.
• If the camera position is changed rapidly during Live View, the image may not be displayed with the appropriate brightness. Wait for the display to become stable before shooting.
• Noise may appear on the Live View image when used in dark locations.
• The higher the sensitivity, the more noise and color unevenness may occur in the Live View image and/or captured image.
• Live View can be displayed for up to 5 minutes. When Live View is ended after the elapse of 5 minutes, Live View can be restarted by pressing the
U button.
• If you continue shooting with Live View for a prolonged period, the internal temperature of the camera may increase, resulting in lower quality images. It is recommended that you turn off Live View when not shooting. To prevent the image quality from degrading, allow enough time for the camera to cool down while shooting with long exposures or recording movies.
• If the internal temperature of the camera becomes high, l
(temperature warning) is displayed and Live View may not be available. If this happens, stop shooting or use the viewfinder.
• During Live View, nothing is displayed in the viewfinder.
• Holding the camera by hand and shooting while viewing the monitor may cause camera shake. Use of a tripod is recommended.
• The field of view of the image display is nearly 100%.
• You can use the provided AV cable or a commercially available HDMI cable
to display the Live View image on a TV or monitor. (p.224)

Using the Built-in Flash
Flash Characteristics in Each Exposure Mode
Using the Flash in
b
Mode
• Any desired shutter speed of 1/180 sec. or slower can be set for taking a flash photograph.
• The shutter speed is locked at 1/180 sec. when a lens other than a DA,
DA L, D FA, FA J, FA, F or A lens is used.
5
Using the Flash in
c
Mode
• The shutter speed shifts automatically anywhere from 1/180 sec. to a slow shutter speed that reduces camera shake. The slowest shutter speed depends on the focal length of the lens in use.
• The shutter speed is locked at 1/180 sec. when a lens other than a DA,
DA L, D FA, FA J, FA or F lens is used.
Using the Slow-speed Sync
You can use slow-speed-sync in b
(Shutter Priority Automatic Exposure) mode when shooting portraits with the sunset in the background. Both the portrait and the background are captured beautifully.
• Slow-speed Sync slows the shutter speed. Use the Shake Reduction function or turn off the Shake Reduction function and use a tripod to avoid camera shake. The picture will also blur if the subject moves.
• Slow-speed Sync shooting can also be performed with an external flash.

Using the Trailing Curtain Sync
Trailing Curtain Sync discharges the flash immediately before the shutter curtain closes. When shooting moving objects with a slow shutter speed,
Trailing Curtain Sync and Slow-speed Sync produce different effects depending on when the flash is discharged.
For example, when shooting a moving car with Trailing Curtain Sync, trailing light is captured while the shutter is open and the flash captures the car immediately before the shutter is closed. Therefore, the picture will include a sharp, well-lit car with trailing light behind it.

Distance and Aperture when Using the Built-in Flash
Relationships between the guide number, aperture and distance must be considered when shooting with the flash to obtain a correct exposure.
Calculate and adjust the shooting conditions if the flash output is not sufficient.
Sensitivity Built-in Flash Guide Number Sensitivity Built-in flash guide number
ISO 100 Approx. 13 ISO 3200 Approx. 73.5
ISO 200 Approx. 18.4

*1 This can be used when [3. Expanded Sensitivity] in the [
A
Custom Setting 1] menu is set to [On].
Calculating Shooting Distance from Aperture Value
The following equation calculates the effective distance of the flash.
Maximum flash distance L1 = Guide number ÷ Aperture value
Minimum flash distance L2 = Maximum flash distance ÷ 5 *
* The value 5 used in the formula above is a fixed value which applies only when using the built-in flash alone.
Example: When the sensitivity is ISO 100 and the aperture value is F2.8
L1 = 13 ÷ 2.8 = approx. 4.6 (m)
L2 = 4.6 ÷ 5 = approx. 0.9 (m)
Therefore, the flash can be used in a range of about 0.9 m to 4.6 m.
However, the built-in flash in this camera cannot be used when the distance is 0.7 m or less. When the flash is used at closer than 0.7 m, it causes vignetting in the picture corners, light is distributed unevenly and a picture may be overexposed.
5
Calculating Aperture Value from Shooting Distance
The following equation calculates the aperture value for shooting distances.
Aperture value F = Guide number ÷ Shooting distance
Example: When the sensitivity is ISO 100 and shooting distance is 4 m, the aperture value is:
F = 13 ÷ 4 = 3.25
If the resulting number (3.25, in the above example) is not available as a lens aperture, the smaller number that is closest (2.8, in the above example) is generally used.
166
Lens Compatibility with the Built-in Flash
5
Depending on the lens used with this camera, the use of the built-in flash may not be available or may be limited due to vignetting.
The built-in flash cannot be regulated and fully discharges when A lenses not set to the s
(Auto) position, lenses manufactured prior to the A lenses or soft focus lenses are used.
DA, DA L, D FA, FA J, and FA lenses not listed below can be used without problems.

About the Display Panel for AF360FGZ
The AF360FGZ itself does not have the function to set the FORMAT size to [DIGITAL]. However, when it is used with a SLR Digital Camera, the difference in focal length between a 35 mm camera and this camera is automatically calculated based on the difference in angle of view and is displayed on the panel (when using DA, DA L, D FA, FA J, FA or F lens).
The conversion indicator appears and the FORMAT size indicator disappears when the exposure metering timer of this camera is on (it returns to 35 mm format display when the exposure metering timer is turned off).

Using the P-TTL Auto Flash
You can use the P-TTL auto flash with an AF540FGZ, AF360FGZ,
AF200FG or AF160FC flash unit.
The flash pre-flashes before the actual flash and confirms the subject (the distance, brightness, contrast, whether it is backlit, etc.) using the camera 77segment metering sensor. The flash output for the actual flash is adjusted based on the information obtained from the pre-flash, enabling flash photography with more accurate exposure for the subject than with normal TTL auto.
1
Remove the cover of the hot shoe and attach the external flash.
2
Turn on the camera and the external flash.
3
Set the external flash mode to [P-TTL].
4
Confirm that the external flash is fully charged and then take a picture.
The b
will light in the viewfinder when the flash is ready (fully charged).
• For details such as operation method and effective distance, please refer to the external flash manual.
• The flash does not discharge if the subject is bright enough when the flash mode is
C
or i
. Therefore, it may not be suitable for Daylight-Sync shooting.
• Never press the
E
button when any external flash unit is attached to the camera. The built-in flash will hit the external flash. If you want to use both at once, set the wireless mode or connect them using the extension cord.

Contrast-Control-Sync Flash
Combining two or more external flashes (AF540FGZ, AF360FGZ or
AF200FG) or using an external flash in combination with the built-in flash allows multiple flash photography (contrast-control-sync flash photography). This is based on the difference between the amounts of light discharged from multiple units.
The AF200FG must be combined with the AF540FGZ or AF360FGZ.
1
Connect the external flash to the camera indirectly.
2
Set the sync mode for the external flash to contrastcontrol-sync mode.
3
Confirm that both the external flash and built-in flash are fully charged and then take a picture.
• When using two or more external flashes and the contrast-control-sync mode is set on the external master flash unit, the flash output ratio is 2 (master unit)
: 1 (slave units). When an external flash is used in combination with the builtin flash, the flash output ratio is 2 (external flash) : 1 (built-in flash).
• When using multiple external flashes or using an external flash with the builtin flash, P-TTL is used for flash control.
175

Lens Correction
Reduces distortions and lateral chromatic aberrations occurring due to lens properties.
Distortion
Distortion is the phenomenon in which the center of the image appears inflated (barrel distortion) or the center of the image appears pinched
(pincushion distortion). Distortion occurs more easily when using a zoom lens or a small diameter lens, and straight walls or the horizon in the image appear curved.
193
Pincushion distortion Barrel distortion
Lateral chromatic aberration
Lateral chromatic aberration is the phenomenon in which the magnification of the image varies according to the colors (wavelengths of light) when a picture was taken, and may cause a blurred image.
Lateral chromatic aberration occurs more easily at shorter focal lengths.

Detecting Dust on the CMOS Sensor
(Dust Alert)
Dust Alert is a function that detects dust adhering to the CMOS sensor and visually displays the location of the dust.
You can save an image indicating the dust location and display it when
performing sensor cleaning (p.303).
The following conditions must be met before using the Dust Alert function:
- A DA, DA L, FA J lens or a D FA, FA or F lens that has an s
(Auto) position is attached.
- The aperture is set to the s
position when using a lens with an aperture ring.
- The mode dial is set to any mode other than
C
(Movie).
- The focus mode switch is set to l or
A
.
• The exposure time may be extremely long when using the Dust Alert function. Note that if the direction of the lens is changed before processing is complete, dust will not be detected properly.
• Depending on the subject conditions or temperature, dust may not be detected properly.
• The Dust Alert image can only be displayed during sensor cleaning within 30 minutes from the time the image is saved. If more than 30 minutes elapse, save a new Dust Alert image and then perform sensor cleaning.
• The saved Dust Alert image cannot be displayed in Playback mode.
• The Dust Alert image is saved only when an SD Memory Card is inserted.

Removing Dust with a Blower
Raise the mirror up and open the shutter when cleaning the CMOS sensor with a blower.
Please contact a PENTAX Service Center for professional cleaning because the CMOS sensor is a precision part. Cleaning services involve a fee.
You can use the optional Imagesensor Cleaning kit O-ICK1 when cleaning the CMOS sensor.
• Do not use a spray type blower.
• Do not perform Sensor Cleaning during Bulb shooting. The shutter may accidentally close and may cause damage to the camera’s internal parts.
• To prevent dirt and dust from accumulating on the CMOS sensor, keep the lens mount cap on the camera when a lens is not attached.
• When the battery level is low, the message [Not enough battery power remaining to clean sensor] is displayed on the monitor.
• It is recommended to use the AC adapter kit (optional) when cleaning the sensor. If you are not using the AC adapter kit, please install the battery with ample capacity remaining. If the battery capacity becomes low during cleaning, a warning beep will sound. In this case, stop cleaning immediately.
• Do not put the tip of the blower inside the lens mount area. If the power is turned off, this may cause damage to the shutter, CMOS sensor and the mirror.
• The self-timer lamp blinks, and [ d
] and [
Cln
] appear on the LCD panel while cleaning the sensor.
• This camera may generate a vibration sound while cleaning the CMOS sensor. It is not a malfunction.

Troubleshooting
313
In rare cases, the camera may not operate correctly due to static electricity. This can be remedied by taking the battery out and putting it back in again. When the mirror remains in the up position, take the battery out and put it back in again. Then, the mirror will retract when the camera is turned on again. After these procedures are done, if the camera operates correctly, it does not require any repairs.
We recommend checking the following items before contacting a service center.
The camera does not turn on
Problem
The shutter cannot be released
Autofocus does not work
The battery is not installed
The battery power is low
Cause
The lens aperture ring is set to other than the s
position
Remedy
Check if a battery is installed. If not, install a fully charged battery.
Replace with a fully charged battery or use
the AC adapter kit (optional). (p.52)
Set the lens aperture ring to the s
position
or select [Permitted] in [27. Using Aperture
A
Custom Setting 4] menu.
The built-in flash is charging
There is no available space on the SD
Memory Card
Recording
Wait until charging is finished.
The subject is difficult to focus on
The subject is not in the focusing area
The subject is too close
Insert an SD Memory Card with available
space or delete unwanted images. (p.54, p.74)
Wait until recording is finished.
Autofocus cannot focus well on subjects that have low contrast (the sky, white walls, etc.), dark colors, intricate designs, rapidlymoving objects or scenery shot through a window or a net-like pattern. Lock focus on another object located at the same distance as your subject, then aim at the target and press the shutter release button fully.
Alternatively, use manual focus. (p.116)
Position the subject in the focus frame in the middle of the viewfinder. If the subject is outside the focusing area, aim the camera at the subject and lock the focus, then compose a picture and press the shutter release button fully.
Move away from the subject and take a picture.

WARRANTY POLICY
327
All PENTAX cameras purchased through authorized bona fide photographic distribution channels are guaranteed against defects of material or workmanship for a period of twelve months from date of purchase. Service will be rendered, and defective parts will be replaced without cost to you within that period, provided the equipment does not show evidence of impact, sand or liquid damage, mishandling, tampering, battery or chemical corrosion, operation contrary to operating instructions, or modification by an unauthorized repair shop. The manufacturer or its authorized representatives shall not be liable for any repair or alterations except those made with its written consent and shall not be liable for damages from delay or loss of use or from other indirect or consequential damages of any kind, whether caused by defective material or workmanship or otherwise; and it is expressly agreed that the liability of the manufacturer or its representatives under all guarantees or warranties, whether expressed or implied, is strictly limited to the replacement of parts as hereinbefore provided. No refunds will be made on repairs by nonauthorized PENTAX service facilities.
Procedure During 12-month Warranty Period
Any PENTAX which proves defective during the 12-month warranty period should be returned to the dealer from whom you purchased the equipment or to the manufacturer. If there are no representatives of the manufacturer in your country, send the equipment to the manufacturer, with postage prepaid. In this case, it will take a considerable length of time before the equipment can be returned to you owing to the complicated customs procedures required. If the equipment is covered by warranty, repairs will be made and parts replaced free of charge, and the equipment will be returned to you upon completion of servicing. If the equipment is not covered by warranty, regular charges of the manufacturer or of its representatives will apply. Shipping charges are to be borne by the owner.
If your PENTAX was purchased outside of the country where you wish to have it serviced during the warranty period, regular handling and servicing fees may be charged by the manufacturer’s representatives in that country. Notwithstanding this, your PENTAX returned to the manufacturer will be serviced free of charge according to this procedure and warranty policy. In any case, however, shipping charges and customs clearance fees to be borne by the sender. To prove the date of your purchase when required, please keep the receipt or bills covering the purchase of your equipment for at least a year. Before sending your equipment for servicing, please make sure that you are sending it to the manufacturer’s authorized
11
328 representatives or their approved repair shops, unless you are sending it directly to the manufacturer. Always obtain a quotation for the service charge, and only after you accept the quoted service charge, instruct the service station to proceed with the servicing.
• This warranty policy does not affect the customer’s statutory rights.
• The local warranty policies available from PENTAX distributors in some countries can supersede this warranty policy. Therefore, we recommend that you review the warranty card supplied with your product at the time of purchase, or contact the PENTAX distributor in your country for more information and to receive a copy of the warranty policy.
