Well, sometimes you get lucky on ebay, sometimes you don't. I recently picked up a Spot F with a Super-Tak 35/2.0 for a reasonably good price, but when it arrived I noticed a problem with the lens. The front barrel appears to be loose, as there's about 0.5 cm of play. It doesn't appear to affect the lens elements, but I'm definitely no expert in this area. Thoughts?
My M42-K adapter hasn't arrived yet so I haven't done any test shots with it, but I'm curious if I should send this lens in for repair or just use it as is.
Also, the lens has yellowed...I heard that leaving it out in sunlight for about 15 minutes will take care of that. Has anyone tried this?
I attached some photos so you can see what I'm getting at...
