Very simple question.
out of SDM capable lenses which are known to have failed???
I've read horror stories, regarding the first SDM lenses (16-50 &50-135 DA*). I have caught thread or two that would indicate troubles with 17-70. There isn't much written about 60-250 anyway, BUT what strikes me is, I don't remember reading about any prime lens failing! Now I realize 200 and 55 are probably not the best selling things but 300 has built quite a reputation.
Correct me if I'm wrong but has anybody caught any info about 55 - 200 - 300 failing in SDM?
edit:
further down you'll find chart in this format
Lens Copies/Failures
16-50 6/2
50-135 6/3
60-250 2/1
17-70 1/0
55 1/0
200 0/0
300 3/1
please add your numbers to the last one.
TIA for any kind of replies.
