More than fair wear and tear I would imagine. Just examine it closely and if possible check it out on your camera.

Deleted, maximum delete....
The hole has been plugged, but if there are any more then just mention it here and I'll remove the offending post.

If you let me know, I can delete these for you, but it would take a while to delete a large number!
It's currently under investigation.

You will never cut out all the light with one polariser, you need two for that. You also need the light to actually be polarised for any effect, and not all light is polarised.

I was told that the rattle in some 50mm lenses is due to the ball bearings in the aperture mechanism. It's totally normal.

I've put together a Blurb book that brings together all the srticles I've written so far for Pentax User. Peter Bargh kindly agreed that I could use scans of the original magazine pages.
It runs to 66 pages and is available for previewing and even buying at:

There's no intention to make money out of this, but rather make the information available to our camera club members who might find some of it interesting and even useful. Anyone else is welcome to take advantage if they wish.
Feedback, as always, is welcomed.

The 4/3 dSLR system seems to have stalled recently, and I think Olympus will need soon to demonstrate some commitment to its future beyond the consumer end of the market. The E30 and (especially) E3 are looking somewhat tired now. I don't get the sense that Sony are doing particularly well in the dSLR arena either, despite the plethora of almost identical models they have launched.
My personal opinion is that Olympus will happily ditch the 4/3 system when it suits them, in much the same way as they did with the OM system.The 4/3 dSLR system seems to have stalled recently, and I think Olympus will need soon to demonstrate some commitment to its future beyond the consumer end of the market.
