Eeek, mine is close to that at 402xxxx, built in April 2011. I'll have to keep an eye on it.

I had thought that all bodies with serial numbers starting with 4 were not affected by this.

And a few seconds later, it did just that, but I did manage to get within a couple of meters of it first.

It seems these youngsters haven't learned to fear a camera wielding human yet.

It was a good evening Gwyn. It was one of a series of free concerts in the Parque Almenara shopping mall just outside Lorca where the earthquake was 2 months ago.

Blues night this Friday, the Beatles (tribute) the week after.

I used daylight WB to try and keep the atmosphere of the lighting.

Probably, but it'll be a warranty job if it's the staing problem.

It does look like the staining issue to me.

What are the first 2 digits of your serial number?
When was the camera made?

K5 + DA* 60-250mm - in available light, which was changing in colour and intensity so quickly, I'm surprised I got so many keepers.













The rest can be seen here.

The first couple of head shots are heavily cropped from the original, hence a bit noisy.

Shot last night, K5 + Sigma 150-500mm lens, tripod mounted. There seems to be a strange outer ring around the moon ? ? ?. Possibly induced in PP (Topaz), but I blame the Americans.

I sold my SMCP-FA 135mm 1:2.8 to a forum member. I knew I'd regret it, and I did, before I'd even posted it. Looking to replace it now.

I sold my SMCP-FA 100mm 1:2.8 macro too, but I've replaced that already thanks to Danny (unlocker), even though I already had a D-FA 100mm 1:2.8 macro lens.

I also sold a little used SMCP-A 24mm lens. I may have to replace that soon too.

I have enough zooms covering 12-500mm, and a 1.7x T/C, but you know:-

"There is nothin' like a prime, nothin' in the world, there is nothin' you can name that is anythin' like a prime!".

In a word, yes.
