Hey everybody,
I'm not sure this is the right forum for this question......but here it is anyway. I own a 35mm limited and I think it may be defective. Before shipping it off to Pentax for service I wanted to check with you guys here to see if it really is defective. So, the problem is the following. The outer and inner barrels of the lens are not tight against each other. When i pull on the inner barrel slighly, there is a small cliking noise and the inner barrel moves very slightly. The motion is very very small....but is noticeable and it doesn't feel right, if you know what i mean. It also has a slight effect on the focus. I mean, when i focus and then move the inner barrel, the focus changes. This free play only occurs when i pull the lens perpendicular to the sensor plane.
Thanks.
