Hmm. Could be element separation inside the lens. Have you looked
through it to see if there's any evidence of that?

I have one of the newer (silver) FA 80-200 f4.7-5.6 zoom lenses. I
just noticed over the weekend that the majority of pictures taken
with this lens that the RAW images seem to have a sort of a "haze"
or cloudy look to them. Can't figure out what may cause this nor
have not seen it in any other lenses I have. The images can be
corrected in ACR by adjusting the shadow slider. I bought this lens
on eBay for $45 so maybe it is defective. Anyone else experience
anything like this?
Thanks,
