I know several of you have this lens. Could you let me know how much wobble
there is in the barrel? The wobble will be centered under the autofocus/manual
focus shift ring.
Does wobble seem to affect image sharpness?
I just returned one that had so much wobble here that I thought the lens had

I have two of these beauties, one near mint and one a bit scuffed up
cosmetically, but neither one of them has any woblle (and, manual focus
dinosaur that I am, I'm pretty sensitive to sloppy construction).

Alan, I no longer have the lens. I returned it.
If you go to Boz's site, there is a photo of the lens. Be sure to pull up the F

I would guess that the barrel was designed in two parts, and that the parts

joined under this ring. If so, perhaps it can be tightened.

A bit late now... but if they would sell the lens as is for a rather
low price, I would take a chance as parts are still available. Once
