PLM 55-300 Zooming goes sticky
Posted By johnde

I am wondering if there is any way to lubricate the zooming mechanism of a Pentax PLM 55-300 Zoom. I had not used the lens for a while and it is a bit juddery when I am zooming. The smooth action has gone. Not a problem most of the time but it is annoying. I sort of doubt if there is a user solution given the lenses are so well weatherproofed but would be pleased to hear of any solutions.

Merry Christmas to Pentaxians

Thanks for all the comments. I know I had not set the camera specifically for the shot but I did not know how long the rainbow would last. I took the couple of quick shots and saw no rainbow so I just ditched it an went for the iPhone. I needed that to get the full rainbow in pano mode anyway. Time to learn more about the camera!

Tried taking a photo of a glorious rainbow with my KP and the Pentax 12-24 mm wide angle. Just the UV filter on the lens. All I got was shades of grey (with a hint of colour) for the rainbow. Had to get out my iPhone X to take take the shots. What's the problem? - love to know.

Hi, I have a K-3 that was knocked over on a tripos. The lens mount part of the camera was damaged but the rest of the camera is OK. I replaced it with a KP.

Make me an offer?

John
