Bad luck. But there's always a silver lining. It's a good excuse to buy
a 1.4.

On my recent journey to northern Michigan I had yet another run-in with
gravity and impact.
This time it was my Super Program and A-50/2. I'd carried the camera
on the
flight with me and jammed it into the backpack while we were landing
because
it needed to be under the seat or some such per the flight attendant.
Unfortunately, the pack didn't get totally zipped I guess since the
camera
plopped out onto the parking lot as we were trying to fit six people and
luggage in to my moms four person car. On initial inspection, it didn't
look bad but later, when I tried to use it, the lens wouldn't focus. I
noticed a dent in the filter ring and I guess it landed hard enough to
chunk
the lens's internals.
Now, this isn't an expensive lens but it WAS part of the kit that I
received
that started me down this Pentaxian road... and I liked it.
It's the third or fourth lens that I've wrecked in the few years I've
been
shooting and it pisses me off. I feel like I've let these things down
with
my lapses of concentration or judgement and allowed them to come to
harm.
Anyway, I guess my self loathing rant is over.
Be careful out there
Cory
