Dear Friends, The entire lens of my Electro GSN seems to 'wobble' on the body. I can move the lens about 0.5mm sideways or up/down, like it needs to be tightened to the body. I have seen other Electro's with the same problem and the lens on my Yashica Minister D feels the same way. Is it easy to DIY and how do I proceed. Be warned that I have only limited camera repair skills - I discovered this the hard way this weekend when trying to repair a Nikon EL2, but that was perhaps an over-ambitious first try... Thank you in advance.

I had the same problem with my Olympus 35 SP - and managed to fix it. Have a look at the thread from 01/02/2005.
