f-stop ring of Collapsible Leica Summicron 50mm Screw Mount too tight
Hi
I have the above lens which has been serving me well. Of late, I notice that there is some problem when I turn the f-stop ring. When turning to apertures from f5.6 to f2, the turning was smooth and normal. When I start turning them from f8 to f16, it gets tigher and tigher. At times, the turning is so tight that it unscrews the lens slightly from the camera body and in other instances, the turning changes the lens barrel to "collapsible mode". What is the problem here? Is there a way to fix this at home, or do I need to send it to a Leica technician to have it fixed? How much would it roughly cost? Thanks! |
