Perhaps Pentax does have someone reading this list, read of my problems
trying to disassemble a F 70-210 and decided to remedy the situation in
future products.

First time shooting the DA*200mm lens last night at the Museum of
Contemporary Art. It was dark, crowded, and I had had a few champagnes
already. In between sets, I had the lens and camera on my shoulder as
I made my way to the bar. I do remember thinking it was odd the lens
felt a little loose. But the results seemed ok.
This morning, I took a quick look at the lens. Three of the five
screws on the mount were missing! And the other two were loose but
still holding on.
Luckily I have a collection of 50mm f2 "body caps" that I never use.
Pentax use the same screws on the mount after all these years, so now
the 200mm is securely mounted. Phew. The angels must have been
watching over me last night.
