Ok,update,i did it this morning,took me over 2 hours,i'm never ever going to do that again,rather pay someone,you see,work wise, i swing things like hammers and angle grinders around most days,that was way way to fiddly for my hands,it also came to a close point where a K70 was about to take wings and fly out the back door
Does it work,well yes it does,the future,i think theres going to be a K70 up for sale in the very soon
Thanks for the help everyone

My gut feeling was right then,i did read all that,twice in fact,but still wasn't sure hence why i asked here.
Thanks photogem,but i think i'll skip the one from the US,as theres extra import charges on that,next stop i guess is John Pye

I'll be honest,i've totally lost all enthusiasm in the last few weeks,with so much going on within my brain the K-70 has hardly if not never been out its bag,lost my mojo so to speak...................just a glitch,hopefully

Undecided as of yet,really enjoy this month until i got a big minus,but,i also got a big plus to(lens issue)
Have to say that Sigma DC 17-70 2.8-45 is a cracker,and a real bargain also,got it extra cheap(£30) because of a small scratch to the front glass,never showed up once,so 8/10 for me

Hi all,well as said before the sigma DC 17-70 got a stray bullet form somewhere,wounded but not dead,took time out today to see if it was repairable
After some research,i came across this guy You Tube |

Believe it or not,mine had the same problem,of course took me a lot longer to do(2hrs) but i got there,i now have the lens back and working,i'm a happy chappy.
PS,i have a brief description on what i did,with a few pics,wheres the best place on the site to post it?
Cheers

Might be me,but i'm beginning to think the lens i used in movember gave me more joy(and results) than the plastic fantastic i'm using now,still,only 9 days in,to early to make a call as yet

Well i enjoyed the challenge this month and the lens,although i wont give it 10/10,maybe a 8,just,had to sharpen up a little bit in post most of the time,still,switching the brain to B&W while seeing colour was a learning curve
Alas,the last week or so has been hectic due to work commitments,so quite annoyed i didnt finish off the month fully
