There are patterns, it's a problem, you should be able pic up a lens and have it work after say a 3 month break. I don't always carry my long glass, it stays in my safe for the most part but I know that when I do need it it will work. Having to regularly exercise a lens to guarantee it works is pretty lame (assuming that's part of the pattern), the only bit of photo gear that I do accept needs a regular workout to keep it functioning is my now 40 y/o M4. -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
