Thanks, I guess there aren't many who have a stock of glass plates and lantern slides!

Lenses are assembled in Vietnam, cameras in The Philippines, but no doubt both elsewhere as well.

Comment Image

I thought the film enthusiasts might enjoy this image. This is the K-50 at ISO200, but the image didn't get into the review.

I shoot what I consider to be a fair number of pictures, but even the K20D has only reached 11,000 actuations. It's got a long way to go yet, hopefully.

I think it's an expectation, in other words most shutters would be expected to last 100,000 actuations or more. Some will fail at every stage, very few early on, with increasing failure rates as the figures go up. There may be a few that will go to 200,000 actuations.

Car engines will also sometimes last an amazing length of time, some will give up the ghost much sooner.

I'm not going to look it up for you, but it is in the K-5 manual, apart from being accepted practice across the literature.

I'll refer you to the instruction manual, which I would regard as the recommended way.

Nobody's trying to scare anyone, but you do seem resistant to just doing things the recommended way. I'm very happy for you to do whatever you want to do.
