I've never noticed the sound, but I've heard it discussed before and there seems to be agreement on that point - due to the seals. And, yes, mine has a point where it's harder to turn the zoom. Don't have it on me right now or I'd check. Ever since I got the iPhone4, I haven't been carrying the K7 around with me as much. That frightens me. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
