So I have a question.
I'm selling off some Pentax gear including my FA31 (that I bought used from a member here a year ago and have loved, have had no issues)
I've got it listed locally and I got a bite, but he asked me over the phone 1) where it was made, which is Vietnam, and 2) does it have a rattle when you shake it?
I held it up to my ear and yes, when I hold it tightly and shake it just a little there's a noise inside..I don't know that I'd even call it a rattle, it's not clunking, or loud, or metallic sounding, its quite quiet and maybe more of a "thunk thunk" or a "thump thump."
As I said, I've had no issues with it. It's definitely a lens that took a while for me to learn to use well, but it's been fine. Is there possibly something wrong I'm not aware of? I would hate to sell a faulty lens to someone. He did mention that there's a known issue with some assembled in Vietnam.
Thanks!
