Well it finally happened. My F 70-210mm jammed. Some of you may remember Powell's 70-210mm repair, and the problem he had with the information brush. (for those who need a reminder http://members.shaw.ca/hargravep/lenses.htm ). It seems to happen no matter what you do. I'm on my way to disassembling mine in an attempt to repair it. Unfortunately it jammed in the 70mm position with focus at infinity so the screws on the sleeve are in accessible. I'm looking for advice if there is any. Well I'm off to buy a new soldering iron since I can't find my old one, (hope that will be enough so that I won't need to buy a JIS crosspoint screwdriver. I suppose I could simply replace it but this lens is too good not to try, and I'm too broke to send it to someone else to tell me it's unrepairable.
