My Nikon 55-200 DX VR Lens is exhibiting a rattle and some odd symptoms. I've had this lens for six years and these just began. Fortunately the images remain fine, but I'm wondering if something is broken inside.
If I tilt the lens end over end, I hear a component rattling inside which is assume to be a VR part. It does this whether the VR is on or the VR is off when I remove the lens from the camera.
When I mount the lens with the VR on and I lightly depress the shutter button, the view in my viewfinder jumps up toward the sky perhaps half a frame, then settles down. It cycles like this two or three times, then acts normally. Images are perfect whether the VR is on or off.
What's up here? The lens has never been dropped. Is there a way I can "fix" this with a reset of some sort or should I just not worry with it? Thank you.
