Re: Damage on E-PM2 lens mount

I just bought a used E-PM2 that has what looks like the same issue (it's going back, I think).

I notice that the IIR kit lens has kind of a double flange on the mount, which creates an airspace against the camera mount plate. Perhaps sweat or humidity gets in there, and then just sits and works away at the metal plating. If you didn't change lenses, you'd never even know it.
