Hi,
If you are happy with the lens and will use it as it is now... then don't
touch it :)
But I do believe you can't really use the lens this way and probably a
repair wouldn't really worth it's price if it's made by a professional. So
you can give it a try, open it up and see if you can fix it. Most of the old
manual lenses are not too complicated. And after all it will be a good
experience! :)
Cheers,
.t

The Vivi S1 24-70/3.8-4.8 that I picked up last weekend ...
It will not focus past about 5 ft. The focus ring is its a stopping
point.
I've not disassembled one of these before.
Any hints? Or should I chalk it up to experience?
Sincerely,
Collin Brendemuehl
