Did they explain why?
Don't think any of the Pentax cameras uses an IR-LED as film counter 
(unlike some EOS, Minolta and Contax bodies).
And physically leaking backs, simply because they are made from 
plastic, or have a film window, don't exist....you can find both 
plastic and film window on many cameras, and none has yet proven to 
be a problem.
Try first, believe over-cautious and braindead markedrones 
only as a last possible resort....;-))
