Get a better lens. I had a Quantaray lens and after a short while it stopped working. These lenses arenot that great. Invest in a better quality lens.


What he said!!! Repair of these low cost lenses would (if possible) exceed the cost of a new one, and you would still have a low resale value lens..

I don't know which mount the OP's lens is but I have the Minolta A mount version of the lens which I never used. So I would sell it cheap.

There are several on ebay - it might be less expensive to purchase one from ebay than getting yours fixed.


That is a good first choice.
There are just times a repair is more than the cost of buying a good used replacement.

Take or send the lens to a qualified repair technician - there are no magicians on this site.
Edit: Google "Quantaray lens repair."


That lens is hardly worth repairing. You can probably find a better lens used for what a repair would cost.

Lense is the spelling used in the UK.

I have a 70-300mm Quantaray lense that has recently stopped working in autofocus mode. Manual is fine and the images are still good, however the autofocus glitch is becoming a pain. Any help is appreciated.


You have unwittingly awoken the spelling and usage trolls. Stand back!

As a retred teacher I do cringe a bit at misspellings, but if u kan rede this u r doing ok, as per what is being written on messages now. What will future writing appear to the reader trying to decipher what is seen in those strange nu ritings bout noo stuff? Gess I beter quit while i is behind caus it aint easy to rite dis way.

It is strange how the spelling of various words differ from the US to say the UK we spell colour with a u in it and also thorough with a u in it, still never mind that is the way we are and most people in the UK say lenses not lens
