Maybe that explains why the TSA inspectors drove the shutter releases down into my 2 M7 bodies trying to make them work or whatever the hell they were trying to do. :-( No I haven't heard anything more on the two M7 destructions by the TSA inspectors. One M7 is still waiting for innards to replace what was smashed inside the camera body below the shutter release button. And I'm also waiting for the service report on the damage which I must turn over to my lawyer for verification before sending to the TSA head office. Where they'll make some kind of assessment and get back to me. My suggestion for those of you with M7's and flying ...... "MAKE SURE THE SHUTTER RELEASE LOCK IS ..... OFF!" when you go though inspection, particularly if you are not standing there watching them do their thing.. ted
