[QUOTE="D200freak, post: 512386, member: 41018"] [ATTACH=CONFIG]189192._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]189193._xfImport[/ATTACH] The start of disassembly. Note the messed up iris. That was taken apart and correctly reassembled but it took several tries. Trying to reassemble a nine blade aperture correctly and have it all hold together in the right way while reassembling the system is kind of like attempting to herd cats with firecrackers. The rear lens assembly was loose, just rattling around in the lens body when it arrived. I found two of the three screws that hold it in, in the lens body, loose. Had to order a third. The damage pattern on this lens is interesting. No glass damage, a chip out of the integral hood, and a little impact dent/scrape near the camera mount. I think it fell and hit on the hood and hit in the back on the bounce. [/QUOTE]
