Nikkor 70~200 VR G lens loose on camera mount
Hello All! This is my first time posting, so I hope I have the right news
group. If not, would someone be so kind as to point me in the right direction. I have checked out message threads (back to October 4th) in this news group over the past four days, but have yet to come across one with my problem. Last night, while taking pictures at a minor hockey game, I noticed the lens was somewhat "loose" on the camera mount. So, I removed the lens and remounted it. This did not remedy the situation. After the "click" to confirm proper coupling of the lens, there was still a bit of movement in both directions while on the mount. The lens in question is the Nikkor 70~200 VR G Series zoom lens. It was mounted on a Nikon D100. I tried the lens on my D70 and had the same problem. It is not a large amount of movement but, being a lifelong Nikon user, I find this somewhat troubling. Picture quality does not seem to be affected. I do not recall having this happen before — I have been taking pictures for over 30 years — nor can I recreate this problem with any other Nikon body and lens combination. Has anyone in this group heard of this before? Thank you in advance for your help! Marcus |
