My Pentax may be weather resistant but I look at it as being a protective safety feature, there if needs be, just like an air bag in a vehicle; but I wouldn't crash the car to see if it works!

Hi all - how do you post an image in the forum topic - rather than a link? Looked for info on the site re max image size etc but no joy?

Must be the time of year for insomniacs - got this early Friday Morning!

Well I hope Roscoe is correct about the guide - as I have just purchased one from this very site!!

I expect everyone is waiting for someone to place the first bid - then the rush will start

Thought I had better add the link to the eBay seller, as it may help any prospective purchasers

For my K10D and K20D I have purchased Glass screen protectors! They are available on eBay for about a fiver or so. They have an adhesive film with a peel off backing. Much easier to fit than the sticky plastic film variety - No air bubbles and can be cleaned with a micro fibre cloth or similar. Supplier tells me there is not one for my K7 yet but suggests their generic 3" screen protector. Sounds dodgy being made of glass but the manufacturer states that they are as tougher than the original screen

This may end the confusion? The locking screw in the attached image is the one that is supposed to be captive but is no longer!

The foot is designed to be removed by slackening the screw, which should remain captive. However, in the case of my lens, the screw came out completely!!
