by KhoKing on June 28, 2009, 10:03:16 PMMy apology for the downtime of PentaxWorld in the past 48 hours. The server was down and I can't get access to it. The provider (LayeredTech) is "forcing" us to move to another datacenter, which will require us to do all the backup and migration all by ourselves.  I will move PentaxWorld to a better specs server in around September. Better support and better features. Hopefully better speed to all. Once again, sorry for the unexpected downtime. Please fill free to contact me via khoking@gmail.com in future if there is any downtime again. Please mark down the email address, as this post will not be accessible during the downtime obviously...  49 Views | 0 Replies

by ironshot on April 09, 2009, 12:59:20 PMI've been quite busy lately and haven't had time to post much. I tried to post this in the News section with no luck. I ran across this on the Pentax support page and thought the K20D owners might be interested in the latest firmware update. It takes just a few minutes to complete the whole process. It is supposed to improve the SR function. The firmware update is available through the link below. http://www.pentax.jp/engl...pport/digital/k20d_s.html Regards Craig 1547 Views | 11 Replies

Shriro Malaysia has unofficially confirmed that they no longer carry Pentax products in their range. They are officially removing Pentax from their list and will no longer be distributing Pentax imagine products in Malaysia.
It has also been heard that Shriro Singapore is dropping the distributorship as well.
New distributor in the region is unknown yet...though there are already hints of who will be taken over the brand. Oo) 1454 Views | 11 Replies
