Re: Mystery geometry

How about shinny little metal thingy that attaches strap to camera ? At one time they were round IIRC. Kenneth Waller http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/kennethwaller - Original Message - From: "Boris Liberman" <bori...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: Mystery geometry

Re: Mystery geometry

Your note came through. What comes on the camera is the traditional typical triangular split gizmo, with an added plastic sleeve that protects the camera body from scratches. The 645Z has a similar plastic collar on the triangular piece. The triangular gizmo comes attached/installed. I find it
