I don't find it to be a problem except when using a tripod with a long lens that doesn't have its own tripod "foot". For those shots, I either remove the Battery Pack FG from the ZX-5 or use the LX or K-1000, all directly mounted to the tripod. TTYL, DougF - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
