I have a 2 year old MZ-S. The camera back has developed a bit of flex and squeeks noticeably. This is with moderate usage, no dropping or hard knocks. There doesn't seem to be an impact on image quality, but it's very disappointing, considering the quality of the rest of the camera. Has anyone else experienced the "squeeky back syndrome"?

I was hoping that someone would at least suggest a certain screwdriver to tighten the back. My post has been out there over a week and not one comment.

People are usually quick to respond here if they know the answer. The lack of a response suggests that none of the regulars have experienced the problem.

In your place I would try tightening any screws that appear to be loose. Firms like Draper make sets of jewelers' screwdrivers which don't cost very much, and they're handy to have around for occasions like this.
