One of my PXLs has the 'cloudy' lens affliction, I believe.  Even 

outdoors, it only registers faint images in bright light.  I've read 

about other who have cleaned the small blue filter in the lens.  I'm most 

likely going to attempt this... however, I wanted to ask if anyone 

suggests NOT doing this, or has any other ideas for a cause.



Since I don't have a manual, what is the small black switch on the rear 

of the camera for?  I can't seem to figure it out.



P.S.:  Aren't the batteries a real pain in the ass to get in and out?  

I'm considering using a piece of dental floss or something to put beneath 

the batteries when I put them in, so I can remove them easily when finished.



Thanks... paul
