Well, if true, this is incredibly bad design.

If changing the lens while the camera is switched on was going to destroy the whole thing, any half-witted engineer would incorporate a simple interlock to prevent same. Or, more likely, rework the design on the lens/body connections to make the system more robust.

To the high and mighty posters who claim they would never make such a simple error or oversight, I say, HAHAHAHAHA, HEHEHEHEHE, HAHAHAHAHA!
