Got this lens used for a real deal. Now I think I know why.
When I turn on my D5000 with this lens it makes 4 clicks (the lens).
Seems to function OK, although sometimes will not allow me to take a picture. Not sure if that is even related to the clicking.
Sounds like the motor is moving and trying to lock on something?
Read somewhere to always turn off the VR mode on the lens before removing it from the camera.
Also read to turn the camera on, turn the VR on and off, then turn the camera off.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
