Actually floating elements is a design trick to allow for sharper close distance focusing distances in a lens.

Nikon markets this as 'CRC'.

'Floating elements' isn't even a marketing sales term, in my opinion. It refers to (usually) a group of individual glass within the lens barrel which moves individually as you turn the focusing ring.

Bah, I may have explianed it all wrong. Go google for it.

That's it?! Woah, ok. Fancy name for what appears to be taken for granted in a typical lens design huh.
 

Hi, this is my first post here. The Pentax related equipment I have are handed down from my father. They are

- Pentax ME
- Pentax MX (sticky mirror)
- Ricoh XR-7
- Kiron 2x converter
- Sigma K/A 16mm f/2.8 Fisheye
- Pentax K 18mm f/3.5
- Kiron 28mm f/2
- Pentax M 35mm f/2.8
- Pentax M 50mm f/1.7
- Pentax K 150mm f/4
- Tokina 200mm f/3.5
- Tamron 500mm f/8 mirror
- Kiron 28-70mm f/3.5-4.5
- Kiron 70-150mm f/4

The following was bought in 2001 after the Ricoh XR-7 could not focus accurately and to have AF.

- Pentax Z-1
- Tamron 28-200mm XR f/3.8-5.6

Hi All,

Doing some spring cleaning in the house and discovered that I still have my K1000, still in good condition but I guess the lens and body needs some minor clean-up. Any recommendations on the place I can go and the price of cleaning it up?

Many thanks!
