Awesome POV. Can't figure out what angle this was taken at. Good job!

Awesome, thanks for all the replies everyone. I guess I'll try to find some down time and have it repaired.
My apologies on the late response, I haven't had any internet access for the past 9 days.

Hello all,
Back in March, 2012 I was on a month long California National Parks road trip. A week into my trip and a few miles down a dirt road in the Mojave Desert not far from Death Valley I stopped to take some sunset photos. During this time I changed lenses only to discover, to my dismay, that my lens release button was gone! Luckily it was on the ground at my feet. I poked it back in to release my lens but it refused to stay in, as I expected. I spent the next three weeks of my trip changing my lenses with a sharpened stick, and actually am still doing that today. My work requires me to travel a lot and the camera is a must have, I'd forget my ID before I forgot my camera. I haven't taken it to a repair shop because I just don't have the time to wait for up to 6 freaking weeks to get it back. I'm not averse to doing the repairs myself but I don't want to walk into it blind. As annoying as this issue is it by no means makes the camera much more difficult to use but my main concern is that the cameras weather tight integrity is broken, especially as I find myself in wet/windy environments quite frequently.
My inquiry is if anyone has access to a disassembly walk-through for the K-5.
About 4 months ago I found a disassembly walk-through for the K10D, my first DSLR. I used the walk-through to convert my K10D to an IR camera since it had been sitting around doing nothing for a couple years. Great fun BTW. If you have an old camera laying around collecting dust I recommend converting it to IR.
Thanks!

Just wanted to say Hi and get a post on here finally. I upgraded from a P&S Canon S3-IS to the K10D about a year and a half ago. I'm quite satisfied with it, but I must say I'm looking forward to the K7. Most of the people I know think I really know what I'm doing with a camera, I consider myself a noob. I know I'm going to learn a lot here. See you all around.
