Now this is downright painful, yesterday I'm taking the lens hood off the F 70-210mm and it's a bit stiff unscrewing, (I'm using a hood from a Super Takumar 150mm f4.0, works perfectly with the 70-210mm on the K20D), and it's a bit stiff coming off, I must have bunged up the threads. Funny I didn't notice it being stiff going on. Well I had to apply a little bit of force and as it begins to unscrew I hear a pop... Now the moving/focusing elements of the lens are unmoored from the focusing helical, and worse the entire front housing be partially removed from the lens barrel exposing part of the focusing helical. So life hoovers, yet it gets even better! The backup/redundant Vivitar S1 is off for repair because it's stopdown lever is binding. It seems that all of my equipment is broken.
