50-135mm 2.8

Alan Granger · 04-07-2011, 05:19 AM

About 18 months after I bought this, otherwise superb lens, the motor went out. Now, 18 months after it was replaced,it has gone out again. Is this going to be an ongoing problem?

Ouch, I feel your pain. Unfortunately I think the answer is "probably, yes"
