Good day all:
I just acquired this lens, and it is in very nice shape, except for something I noticed yesterday on its first serious outing. When zooming, if I held the ring too tight, it would bind and resist movement. If I used a light touch, very slight resistance, but it moved pretty well
I found that when shooting, holding the camera with R1C1 on the front of the lens, I tended to squeeze a bit more than when just handling the lens itself, and ran into this 'sticking' issue. I almost want to put a drop of armorall
silicon lubricant under the ring, but of course won't, because of where it might end up.
Thoughts and advice appreciated!
