Can a zoom lens be used as a vacuum cleaner?
(cleaning the space around, and collecting all that dust on the sensor)

A fellow on dpreview forums claims that operating zoom on Pentax 
18-250 provides suction that leads to dust penetrating inside the lens.

Any comments?

Has anybody seen any objective results about this suction effect in
zooms? (Most zooms do not have dust-sealed design, so this effect should
not be limited just to this lens.)
