I quit worrying so much about the robustness of the front element coatings when I saw the Pentax demonstration of crushing out a cigarette on the front element like it was an ashtray. I don't shoot at the beach or anywhere else there's salt spray or sand or whatever, either, though. But those things worry me more for what they can do when they get inside the lens than on its front element. -- Thanks, DougF (KG4LMZ) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
