Originally posted by zosxavius You realize that lens can be fixed for not much more really right? I don't know what enfield would charge, but CRIS would probably be in the ballpark of 2-300. A lot less than the cost of replacing it for sure. Sounds like it just needs reassembled properly. Seems like a waste to let a $1000 lens go for 150 when it can be repaired if you ask me. That's a significant loss of investment. Lenses are like new generally after a CLA/repair. I hate to be the voice of reason, but seriously, send it in and get it fixed by a trained professional.
SDM replaced, electronics perfect, calibrated, perfect, cleaned, 100% to spec $280.00 or so
