I was greatly donated one of these from someone on Photography-on-the.net, now it works flawlessly optically, focus and aperture wise.

However, the push-pull zoom action is a little sticky at either end. If anyone else has this lens, does theirs also stick? If not, how do I get to clean the sticky-bits? Don't want to open it and ruin something!

Cheers! I think there just may be grime and crap in the zooming mechanism.
It's not life-changingly bad but it'd be nice to be smooth!
I repeatedly camera myself in the face when it decides to unstick...and it's getting painful Smile

Turns out fantastic images though, yikes.
