Hi folks,
Just bought a TL-Super on eBay. It has a few problems one of which is the lens has some rotational slack and also wobbles quite a bit side to side and up and down. I understand that the 1.4 is a very nice lens and would like to tighten it up if I can. Anyone got any suggestions as to how to dismantle it. The only screws in sight are three grub screws around a rear collar but I thought I'd wait for suggestions before removing them. I don't know if the are several models of the lens but it is on the early model of this camera.
Thanks, Howard
