Sorry for the late reply, I've been away on business.

I change lenses probably about once per week, and typically take about 30 shots per week on average. My everyday lens on the K10D is the Tamron 24-135 which has quite a long "trombone" action, certainly much more of a zoom extension than the 18-55 kit lens which was the norm on my DS. This extension, also present on my 16-45 Pentax which I use for wider angle shots, will have the effect of sucking in and blowing out air in the mirror/shutter chamber.
