Fellow Photographers: I Have the Canon FD 500mm f8 Reflex lens. My question is that when you rotate the lens in to the lock position there is quite a bit of play in the back and forth movement, I have been told that this is acceptable, but when you remove the drop in filter you can see the lock mechanism, when you rotate the lock part you can see the very small screws move up and down does any body have the same lens like this or can I remove the back of the mount and tighten up the screws my self, and if possible how do you take of the back mount. Appreciate any help as the lens has had very little use. Kind regards. Mike
