Since upgrading to a K30 I now have a GX10 not doing much.
I thought I might use it for my M42 lenses for a bit of fun, I am quite happy coping with the pre set aperture etc but what I am worried about are all the electrical contacts on the body being open to the elements.
Does there exist a collar which can go round to protect the contacts when in use or has anyone any experience of making something for the purpose?
Thanks in advance for any replies.

Next question - cheap (less then £50) alternative anyone?

Have had my K30 a few weeks now and have been really happy with it. I have used it with some off camera flash using wireless triggers but put my Jessops dedicated pentax flash on camera today and got some very strange results.
When I was trying to us it in AV mode when it focused the flash just started flashing uncontrollably until I turned it off.
When I switched to Manual it flashed at the right time but then kept flashing in an uncontrolled manner as before.
Flash has been used many times before with my GX-10 any advice anyone?
thanks in advance

It did however smash the paving slab they hit to pieces.
