I recently dropped my F100/2.8 Macro. I really liked this lens because it's fast, sharp and has a focal length that fits my needs. Also, it is much easier to carry and hold than my FA* 80-200/2.8 which can provide the same 2.8 aperture at 100 mm.
The lens only fell about 1-1/2 feet but fell on asphalt and hit on the corner of the filter ring while mounted on my K-5. The lens is totally jammed. The focus ring wont turn at all and filter ring is slight bent. My questions are: 1) Where do I send it? Is the Pentax shop in CO my only/best option. 2) What is your experience with getting lens repairs? Can they fix it? Will the cost be worthwhile. I really dont want to give up this lens but I also doubt I could replace it. Thanks for any help. -- Kevin Thornsberry -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
