Thanks a lot for the reply, but I'm afraid Ill have to pm you for more instructions as Ive never disassembled a lens.
Also I have no idea what a friction tool is :(.
And yes, I can move the distance scale without focussing, and it seems to go little up and down along the lens barrel.
If I m not able to fix this, the lens will work fine and that scale ring wont damage anything?
Thanks

Hi there,
I recently acquired a S-M-C tak 50/1.4 and while I really like this lens, the distance scale stopped working after only a few weeks of using it.
The lens itself is in good condition, no fungus, oil on blades or anything. But now when I focus the distance scale doesn't move at all, and I hear a crackling sound inside. The lens still works as it should, focuses fine and the aperture rings works nicely as well.
It took me quite some time to get this lens, and I payed $160 with shipping for it, I like it a lot but it saddens me a lot that something on it failed so quickly :(.
Is there anyone who had similar experience with a lens and could help me in any way...?
Also, I dont need the scale meter really as I bought it for portraits and close range shooting, but If this problem will mess the lens altogether eventually then there is something to get worried about...
Any help on the matter is much appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi there,
Im new here and Im a Canon shooter. When i started with photography i had to start with something, so canon it was (because where i live canon lenses are the easiest to obtain.)
But really, after 2.5 years of intensive shooting (over 80 000 shots lol) its not the camera really, its the glass. So... Id just ask for a good glass, and give me anything that glass fits :).
The reason Im a member here is the SMC Takumar 50 1.4 I recently bought..such a nice lens, and it really wasnt cheap to get here! Im definitely looking for more pentax glass as of now.
So, If you know your stuff, it doesnt really matter with what you do it ;)
