<< Is there some sort of locking device that will prevent the manual focusing

was really annoying. I would tweak the manual focusing ring, and the zoom
tension ring would move back and fourth right along with it. We even
tightened down the tension ring as tight as it would go, and sure enough,
you move the MF ring and the tension ring would loosen up and move with it.
What am I missing here?
Thanks,

Hi,
This was my concern too a first, but what happens in reality, is that the
fact that while tension ring does move it doesn't loose it's level of tension
that you selected. Only thing is that position of the words-directing which
way to twist it to achieve either point changes. So, it could have been done
better, so it wouldn't move with MF ring, but...Canon didn't think of it, or
it would be more expensive to make.
So, I learn to live with this little annoyance.
