We have the SLR Zoom version which is much strudier than the SLR version, the compact one is just silly and only works with small P&S cameras. My K10D seems fine on the SLR Zoom version with 50-200. Don't have any heavier lenses to try. Brilliant idea, but can be limited if you have nothing to grapple it to.

I am trying to save for a K10D for my partner, she really could use a better camera. Don't have problems sharing lenses as long as we collect a few more before sharing commences.

I now have four, LBA set in in Skipton where I found an SMC-A 28f2.8. Lens cap was broken though Still added it to my collection. I like A lenses.

Just out of interest, how common is fungus inside lenses?

I've never seen it, touch wood..
I've seen it in a 40 year old Takumar and is a second had lens in a shop.

Common if you don't treat your equipment right or if it has not been used in a very long time.

I have a friend who has an answer to that. Whenever I say: "I can't afford to do this, that, or the other" he replies: "You can't afford NOT to do it".

Great advice. It's cost me thousands over the years, but do I regret it? Rien!

I've done that before but, sadly it won't work right now.

I'll wait for the next batch, hopefully I'll have one of the two DA* lenses by September.

I really want one sealed lens for Scottish weather.

Patience, good things come to those who wait.

EDIT: Although good things may also come if you are in the front line and are the first to pillage.

I only use the web album, not the program as Lightroom is far more capable and produces much better results. Exports are in JPEG and uploaded on the web, never even seeing Picasa's executable.
