This lens has focusing issues as it's inherent. It hunts in anything other than decent lighting conditions and the AF is woefully slow for this lens type and the AF motor is louder than other similar lens types.
Under focusing issues I mean that at least when it's "locked on" I don't want to have back or front focusing by default.

Make that under £300.00 (typo)!
Hey, can you send me a link in private? I'm only buying from the EU by the way!

Hi there,

I'm looking to buy this nice piece of glass, in perfect optical and mechanical condition, without focusing issues. The aesthetic/look is secondary, I dont really care about a few scuffs from normal use.

@steven9761: That's a nice offer, I will contact Alan Marlow in Shepperton to get an estimated repair price for the full gear, and then I will send you a PM as well!

@Algernon: I think I will just stick with making pictures with my cameras rather than making troubles with them

Hi Guys!
Thank you for all the replies!

@steven9761: I Live in Stamford Hill/Stoke Newington.

(After checking on the repair prices, I might better off buying a new equipment But yes, I know, I'm just cheap and those are just estimates.)

Looks decent, but I'm searching for someone who lives closer to skip all the postages.

Hi everyone!

I've got some vintage film equipment, and they could use some proper care:
For example there is a Pentax ME Super body, with a sticky shutter, I have a Chinon 50mm f/1.4 with dust inside that I think is a bit more than acceptable, and finally I have an Asahi Takumar 135mm f/2.5 with dust and even 1-2 microscopic fungus spot in an early stage - so I would like to save the lens from further deterioration.

So if you know someone in London (preferably central, or north) who could deal with these problems efficiently in a reasonable price, I would be really glad to meet him!

I like to use old film tools, so if he can do his job well, he could be my long term repair man

Regards:
Artur
