It does sound as if something is misaligned in the mount. Look carefully at the set screws that secure aperture indicator/DOF ring. If they look disturbed someone's been inside. |
It does look like they've been touched, the paint is very slightly worn out around the tiny screws. I just hope it's a simple bad reassembly job and not something broken.
I'm waiting for a rubber tool to remove the front ring, my usual technique didn't work with this lens, I'll post here again when I get inside, the lens design doesn't look too complex and I have experience with nikkor primes
The lens is still usable so I'm not too worried, I planned on using it for portrait and I doubt I'l lever go over f4-5.6.
What about the loose optical block (?) when I shake the lens, is it normal ? |
