Hi, I just bought a Konica S3 that I am assured works well, but the lens seems to be a little loose from the shutter dial forwards.

Do I need to wory about this, and is it an easy thing to put right? Any help most welcome.

Common in this model. Of my two, the one that is most wobbly takes fine pictures.

This is very common on this model. Nothing to worry about. It, along with the Viv ES, Revue 400SE, Minolta Hi-Matic 7SII and quite a few others, was built by Cosina. However, it's got a great little lens on it.
