Compressed air can sometimes cure this issue if sprayed under the key. Or a good shake and vacuuming. Can help in the short term.

My solution was a $4.95 usb keyboard from the Woollies supermarket which has currently lasted me 10 years. And I do a lot of keyboard work.

Further to my earlier post re FedEx, I can now confirm that my latest acquisition (K 35mm f2.0), will not be my latest acquisition! Despite having scanned it at Stansted and Crayford,losing it, finding it and returning it and scanning it at Stansted for onward shipment to Leeds, they lost it again, and are now compensating my supplier who is refunding me. So no financial loss, but a complete waste of my time and a very dismal customer service experience. Also, a big disappointment as these lenses are hard to find especially in good condition.

That’s bad.

Is the lens like the SMC Tak 35/2?

The latter is a nice lens.

I believe it maybe but without any radioactive elements. I do not need another 35mm, but I do find the K series hard to resist!

Having received my refund for the lost K 35mm f2.0, I have sent to Japan for a K 35mm f3.5. Oh dear! I am now very nervous as the shipper is........FedEx. We will see what transpires.

Interesting - I also think about buying an HDMI Splitter. Did you check if timecode signals are passed to both connected target devices?

In my case it would be my audio field recorder and Elgato CAM LINK connected Mac.

for me, both HDMI sources are not operating at the same time..

this splitter is for a monitor that's being by two different computers, with a switch to only allow one or the other to pass its signal....
