If anyone has replaced their screen, could you measure the old one?

I'm wanting to start a new screen for mine that is on it's way.

Width,length and maybe thickness.

Thanks

I couldn't find that exact model on the photo trigger site, http://www.botzilla.com/photo/strobeVolts.html

So your safest bet would be to measure the trigger voltage at the pins.
Use a digital volt meter.

With the retaining spring removed from the M42/K adapter, it can easily come loose if the focus ring is slightly stiff. And the spring has to be removed to permanently mount the adapter on the lens. That is why some folks, me included, drill the small retaining hole in the lens base.

Thanks anyway Clarky. I wish they would sell Pentax parts for home repairs. I love the camera. But $280.00 to put in a little switch is rather stupid.

I actually need the switch that that button pushes on. I believe it has a ribbon connector with a lpug.

I'm in need of a shutter button switch on my DS. Is there a source to buy parts? Or possibly a broken DS for cheap?

Thanks

Thanks Conky.
The impact splashes are the hardest to get right. The lighting has to be just right. It's fun trying to time the fall to get an impact splash.

I've been playing with some water drop shots. ( The temptation was too great. ) So I decided to try the Tamron.
