My lens was a very early one too, I have heard of other lenses with the same issue, not good considering the cost and hoopla that went with the lens. -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- 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.

I've heard a lot of good things about that FA 100mm f3.5. I think somebody should give that one a good home. : ) On Fri, Aug 30, 2013 at 4:47 PM, Rob Studdert distudio.p...@gmail.com wrote: On 31 August 2013 05:05, Boris Liberman bori...@gmail.com wrote: Well, I can always send you mine so that you can construct one good one out of two broken ones...
