Has anyone had a problem with their EOS 28-135 IS Zoom having the zoom
mechanism binding at the 35mm focal length. Mine is about 15 months
old, used moderately but never dropped. When I go from 28 to above,
there is a catch in the mechanism which sounds and feels like a broken
bearing or gear. Once I get beyond that point, zooming is smooth. I
took it to an authorized Canon dealer in Washington, DC (Strauss -
highly regarded pro shop here) who said they would have to send it back
to Canon, and estimated a repair price of $180 for disassembly and
repair.
Is there anyway the zoom mechanism can be inspected and repaired for
less than that?
