Bizarre and may or may not be related... since the Pentax-A 70-210mm was working flawlessly, I decided to go back to putting on the Takumar macro with m42 converter. Somewhere in there before putting the body down (with lens off) I heard a tiny bouncing sound on my desktop (like when you've dropped that little ball bearing the engages the aperture ring while having a lens apart?). Lifted up the body to look under it and found this: http://www.antiqueauto.org/assets/bizarre.jpg What the heck? Like a little plastic bead. No idea from whence it came. All I know is that everything seems to be working fine again at the moment.
I hope that wasn't the Essence of Pentax falling out of my K-x. I would have hated to lose that. Or perhaps this is telling me I never needed it in the first place? -- 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.
