About a month ago, an I-61 l/d arrived from one of the better FSU sellers. It was only weeks later, that I noticed a loose focusing collar. This lens is really clean, and it looks like it's going to be a good performer.

Well, several emails went back and forth between me and Ondrej [Spyderman], and it took all of 5 minutes to align and tighten 3 tiny black screws in the ring.
Just a bit of contact spray at the rear of the lens where the collar rotates, plus
20 turns back and forth, and all is well. Now on to a test roll...

Cheers, mike

How come the focus ring is crooked in the photo?? Is that a "before" pix?
