What battery problem? The electronics were functioning just fine when it froze up -- the batteries were nice and warm in my armpit. >> Why would it be that the electronic board for one camera will be >> available for a long time, > but for another it will only be available for short time? > > Because one camera was made in large numbers for more than six months. So the number of months that the camera was produced over is more important than the number of cameras produced? Or what? I don't get it. Please explain this to me in a way that makes sense. >> As to LX repair frequency, it was a constant topic on my first stint >> on the PDML. > What kind of repairs were the barrage of DL complaints about? > > D, not DL. Mainly sensor problems and irregular battery problems IIRC. What does that have to do with the longevity of the DL? I don't tell people to beware of sticky mirror problems in the MZ-S because the LX had them. -Aaron -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
