Subject: PZ 28-105 and istD question
Hey gang.
Finally am getting over this cold,so i went out on a driving tour yesterday.
For just about all of the 450 odd frames shot so far, i have used either my A 28 or A50
with the
odd Sigma 100-300 or the Pentaz PZ 28-105.
I had the 28-105 on the istD for some icefishing shots on Lake Simcoe and i found a
sporatic snag
using it. Just womdering if anyones else had this happen or offer an explanation.
At both extreme ends,28 and 105,sometimes when i try and AF on the subject,(infinety) i
can hear the
lens TRY and focus. It makes a noise but nothing happpend. The red focus dot comes on and
the green
focus confirmation light just blinks and the lens tries to focus. If i move it off 105 or
28 just a
tad,it focuses.
However it does not do this everytime. I tried it on a good contrast scene and it di it
then to.
Any ideas.? Battery idicator shows full. I have AA Liths in ther now,with about 400 shots.
I tried the Sigma 100-300 and it does not seem to have this problem(so far)
