I'm not sure about AF lenses, but the best way to store the older Pentax
lenses is front down, with the aperture stopped down to the smallest
aperture possible. As I understand it, this minimizes the chance of
lubricant leaking, and doesn't put pressure on the spring that holds the
aperture open. If I'm wrong, I'm sure someone will correct me. :)
