The few available data for the reactions γpK0Σ+ and γnK+Σ- are compared to models developed for the processes γpK+Σ0 and γpK+Λ. It is found that some of these phenomenological models overpredict the measurements by up to a factor of 100. Fitting the data for all of these reactions leads to drastically reduced Born coupling constants.
