Hi Callum,
The bump stop is the rubber that surrounds the focusing screen. When
you take the lens off you will see it at the top. They like to
deteriorate and go all gooey in time. If your mirror is sticking there
you will probably see evidence of the goo around the edges of the
mirror itself .
Looks like a Mark! to me.

Thanks for the reply darren. Ill look into replacing the seals. I’ve had the
camera open again. the bumpstop is definitely deteriorated - but to the point
of no longer being sticky.
I’m wondering what is the mechanism that returns the mirror to the down
position??? because it randomly works
It may also need a clean lube and adjust, the lubricants can become
gummy over the years, you may also find that the shutter speeds are a
little unpredictable.

A pic with the DA* 50-135 and the 1.4X converter. Easy focusing even with some

Brian - i think it might be Castilleja chromosa; i have seen these several
times, but i don't know if there are others that look quite similar -
maybe Ken knows
I was told by the pro I was shooting with that the flower is called
Slickrock Paintbrush - Castilleja scabrida.
