How dose the minolta 50001 compair with the pentax z10 slr

Questions: is the flash fully seated on the hot shoe, are the batteries in the flash good, finally does the flash fire on another camera. My K1000 would not fire any flash on the hotshoe nor using the PC plug it needed a CLA.

The reset is on the settings menu, it does not have a reset button.

To get to the settings menu press the menu button then press the right button on the controller to get to the setting menu.

When you are on the setting menu you need to go down using the down arrow on the controller to the 3rd page were the reset option is.
Press right to access the reset options then select Reset then ok.

Google the words...disassemble a digital camera.

Press and hold the playback button for 2 seconds. The camera should turn on and be in playback mode. Switch to Camera Mode by opening the from slider cover. Hope that fixes it. See Pentax Z10 Manual Page 34.

because this particular model of the Z series does not have a mic. recording. kind of a waste but if you went to another model (I.E.. Z2) it does have the mic. to record. sorry but i went through the same issue myself. good luck

If software is a problem why not just buy a USB to SD card adapter, and plug your SD card directly into macbook - about $10

i got the same problem. try holding the play button and turning on. it wont help fully, but i was able to look at my already takin pics

here is a link to an ebay search for minolta to canon eos adapter, they sell for just about every camera. i know it sucks, buying a new camera that wont work with your favorite lens, but i think you might be better served focusing (couldnt help myself) on camera features and pricing. i own a canon dslr and love it. sigma has a cool dslr. it has a three layer image sensor, with a removable on sensor ir filter. the ir filter thing is really cool.
