Bruce, my Dam photo above was taken with the DA40 f2.8 Ltd not the 20-40, check the exif data.

SMC DA 40 and K5. Some nice fall colors in Wisconsin.

One of my biggest problems with posting photos is trying to decide which one. So, I just opened up a folder with shots from the 43, quickly picked one, resized in Fastone and uploaded without thinking too hard.

Guessing I'm about to lose it now

I have the M the FA SMC Limited and the XS

2 more to go LBA ahead

a hint on keeping the press on original cap for the XS

get cheap uv filter that screws on and glue the press on cap onto it.

it turns the press on cap into a screw in cap
