I'm having a focus issue with a 50-200mm WR lens that I picked up off of ebay. Pics taken at 50mm aren't in focus, but they are in focus above 100mm. Any suggestions as to what is wrong with the lens?

Since I started driving I've owned seven cars, a 84 Pontiac Sunbird, 90 Chevy Cavalier, 94 Chevy Beretta Z26, 95 Chevy Camaro Z28, 02 Pontiac Bonneville SLE, 03 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi, 05 Pontiac G6 GT, and four SUV's, a 96 Ford Explorer, 02 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 07 Jeep Liberty and currently a 2005 Dodge Durango that I bought three years ago. Out of all my vehicles my favorite is the Durango. It's got plenty of power, seats up to 7 very comfortably, I can load it up with everything but the kitchen sink when I'm not using the third row, it has a five star crash rating, lifetime powertrain warranty, 4 wheel drive so I can drive through anything, and best of all it intimidates other drivers, they get out of my way. I've thought about trading it in on a new Durango but can't part with it. If I had to choose another vehicle it would have to be the Subaru Forester. My Mother has owned one since 2002 and has never had a mechanical failure. I find it very fun to drive, especially on winding roads, the all wheel drive system grips like no tomorrow. I would own one myself but it is too small for my needs.

Nice velvet. I took a similar shot last year in my back yard. It was really foggy. I haven't been able to fix it to my liking.

What happens when the guy wants more than your camera? What happens when your with your family and they want to do harm to them? It's a crazy world out there now a days. It's your right to protect yourself and the lives of the people around you. I don't want to start a gun debate but I do carry a full size 9mm pistol under both a CCW and on my badge as a Peace Officer and have carried it in my camera bag on occasion.

Polaroid Flash

I was looking at the Polaroid as well as the Vivitar Series 1 DF-383-PEN flash for my K10d. The flashes are made by the same company and are identical. I went with the Vivitar one for the name. It felt silly to have a "polaroid" flash. I have been pleasantly surprised with the Vivitar, (as well as the K10d,) it has properly exposed every pic I've taken with it. I was also looking at the AF-360 but it didn't swivel. Over all its the best $92 I've spent!!!

Heres a few examples with the flash bounced using a Sto-fen.
