P.J. Where did you read about this locking the camera feature of the collapsible lens? I can't see it mentioned in the K-S2 manual or the specs pages for the lens(es) themselves. (There are two versions on this lens: The HD coated and the DA/L SMC coated version that serves as the kit lens.) I'm not doubting you, just wondering about the source that discussed that capability.
I think it is a little odd to merely suspect that the capability is in firmware (as opposed to having that suspicion be confirmed) and then getting "pissed" on the basis of a supposition that could turn out to be flawed. Conversely it may turn out to be that you are correct, but in the meantime your ejaculation regarding your dissatisfaction seems to be premature. :) -- 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.
