yeah, that would be good.

(playing around with the camera trying to get it to focus, it ended up getting stuck in grinding at one end of the focus range. It definitely sounds like screwdriver autofocus, but very badly behaving screwdriver AF. Even switching the camera off didn't stop the AF motor from turning. I had to remove the battery to kill the manic ghost in the machine.)
