Un-puppery

So, that lens that I was decrying the other day as being a pup. I might have fixed it. Or at least rectified some of the defects, particularly the issue with it not focussing.

Regard:



The colour isn't brilliant, and the focus isn't totally crisp, but there is much less of the blurriness and ghosting from beforehand. This is more impressive when you realise that:
  1. I genuinely have no idea what I am doing with lens repair.
  2. There is at least one screw left over, along with a grommet that I think came out of it
  3. This was hand held, which is less than ideal with long focal lengths, especially with a lens as light as this

So, I shall pull it to pieces again, and see if I can figure out where all the screws are supposed to go back in. There's also a bit of a smear inside which I might have inadvertently introduced.

lenses, pleasing things, fixing things
