A few months ago, I noticed that when I zoom in, then zoom back out, it seemed that there was some resistance to zoom out the lens. It's an on and off phenemonon and the shots are unaffected.
YEsterday while spotting with Bill, he diagnosed my issue. One of the black internal rings ( I forget the proper name...it may be a lens stop but its not optically sound) which can be seen when you look head on at the lens, was loose and falling backwards toward the camera body.
I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this. And the cost of repair at Canon? It seems like a simply enough fix but....I can't do it. I'm tempted but just can't!
