It doesn’t seem to be a problem, but I have my mail client set to plain text

graciously loaned me for the past few years.  It is also weather sealed, focuses 
silently, has quick shift focusing, and selectable focus ranges.

It did not, however, come with a manual.  I was able to read about the focus 
switch on the Ricoh website:
https://www.ricoh-imaging.co.jp/english/products/lens/k/telephoto/hdpentax-dfa-70-200/

However it isn’t entirely clear how to remove the tripod foot.  I twisted the 
“lock” knob but can only get the foot to wiggle, not come off. I may be 
insufficiently forceful, but I’ve broken things before by being more than 
sufficiently forceful.

I tried to find a manual for it on the Ricoh site, but no luck.  Can anyone 
point me to one I can read?
