On 8/8/05, Manuel Magalhães, discombobulated, unleashed: >I have been reading you for quite a long time, learning a lot with your >discussions and understanding the ways of the group.
I wondered what that funny smell was >It is in fact a big >family, with problems, worries, laughing moments, everything that identify a >family. Dad, are we *there* yet??? >So I am a new member of it and I begin my posts with a help request! Yo Manuel, welcome. Pull up a stool. >I lost the bigger ruber cap that protects the connectors in the bottom of >the MZS, where the Battery Grip touch. The Portuguese dealer say that they >don't have spare parts of the two rubber caps, the Belgium Pentax center >don't even answer to my emails, and I even tried the japanese email >([EMAIL PROTECTED]) whom don't answer either. So, as you can see >before having the courage to turn to you I think I tried everything else. When I buy a camera, I take it out of the box and go outside into the garden. I shake it violently for 30 seconds. If anything falls off, it's not worth keeping cuz it ain't gonna go the distance with me, so I go back in. Like buddhists - "you have to learn to let go....." ;-) >Now the problem is solved with power tape, but as a Pentaxist I like to have >everything in order. Is there anyway of getting them? Give this guy an email, see if he can help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peter Blake. Sells Pentax goodies, some spares. Try him, you'll like him. > BTW I have a Super Ã, a A 50/1.4, a FA 50/1.4, a FA 50/2.8 Macro an FA* >85/1.4, a FA*200/2.8 and in last week I bought in Andorra a brand new F >35-135, with 15 years and a lot of dust. You have my sympathies. Keep the Super A, A50/1.4 and FA*200/2.8, and sell the rest. Go buy an A*85/1.4 with the proceeds. That's not bad. :-) Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________
