I happened to get it fixed by NPS at a PJ seminar where they were set up to do clean/check. The tech said he has seen a few with the same problem of the rubber peeling near the front command dial. It's caused by lack of glue in the area when the camera was assembled. I would assume that re-gluing would be covered under the camera warranty. He fixed mine in all of about a minute. He mentioned that if it happened again, that there is a 2-part glue available at Home Depot, Lowes etc. (any good hardware store should have it) that bonds rubber to metal. Unfortunately, the name is escaping me. He did warn me though, a little dab will do ya! Hope this helps a bit. Mike -------------------------------------- Michael C.
