I rarely switch the camera off between lens changes, never have, not going to start now. My sensor has become a little dusty but I don't think holding it down whilst changing lenses will help a great deal in any case, I sure most of my dust was accrued on windy days. Cleaning CCDs is the price we pay for not having to use film, not a problem here :-) Cheers, Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
