Tamron SP 200-500mm F/5.6 Model 31A Telephoto Zoom Lens with Nikon AIS Mount can I use a spanner wrench and clean this my self? I can buy it used for just over $200.00 or not a good price or not recommened to fix my self?
" PLEASE NOTE: SOLD AS-IS because it has haze on the first element beneath the front element. The other elements are all fine. I don't have tools to open it up to clean it. I can't guarantee that it will clean right off, but it well may. It's just beyond my technical capacity to do this work.
Thanks,
But I think I will just buy a new lens for what it will cost to repair it
They look sharp, but I need to be sure the VR is working because I'm old and a little shaky. my back up Nikon does not have the VR feature or the focal length
It still does it when the VR is turned off. I have cleaned the contacts and tried it on another camera and it still does it?
Thanks for the suggestion
I have a Nikon 18-200mm VR lens that clicks about 3 times and also moves the image in the view finder when it does this. Has anyone else had this problem and if so what did you do to fix it. local repair shop wants $250.00 to fix it.
