[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 842438, member: 10543"] Thank you. Yep, my Nikkor 55-200 DX at 175mm/f8. The lens hasn't worked properly for many years now, producing a sort of clicking noise with the image in the viewfinder jumping up and down when I press the shutter button down halfway. After 3 to 5 seconds it settles down and focuses. So, I have to think ahead as a train approaches to allow enough time for the lens to settle down. It's not an expensive lens, so it's not worth getting fixed. I might replace it someday, though I hesitate because I don't get out to take pictures like I once did. [/QUOTE]
