As an outside chance, have you tried another SD card ?

Yes, I've tried multiple slots.

Does it work in the #2 slot?

The #2 slot works just fine.

I took a look inside, I saw the piece the #2 slot has that the #1 doesn't. I was able to press down on remains of that piece so it went "in and clicked", then when I put a card in, I couldn't take it out until I got a long needle, reached in next to the card and pressed down on the remains of that little metal bit.

Larry,
Just in case:
I wonder if Eric Hendrickson might be able to fix it, even though he
says that he is not working on digital cameras.
Before sending it to Pre-Cession, e-mail Eric to see if he'd be willing to look at it.

Also, since you visit Portland and LA every so often, I wonder if
one of the their local repair shops would be willing to look at it.
I've just found this list of repair shops (US is at the bottom)
that are willing to work on Pentax cameras, and it lists one in Portland and two in LA & vicinity: https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/189-repairs-warranty-service/316284-pentax-repair-facilities-wordwide-listing.html


Good luck!

Igor

The SD card stopped "locking in" on the #1 slot on my K-1.


If I put it in and latch the gate, it'll read the card, but the latch it in function has ceased working.


Has anyone else dealt with this problem and fixed it? I'm not enthused for paying $300 or whatever for what a camera repair at precision costs.
