<p>Hi everyone<br>
<br />I have not used this lens for a while, but today when getting it out, I noticed it looks unusual.<br /><br />The position of the the cocking screw seems wrong. When the shutter open it is at this position:<br /><br /><a href="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5966748/shutteropen.jpg" target="_blank">https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5966748/shutteropen.jpg</a><br /><br />When I tripped the shutter, the screw is at this position:<br /><br /><a href="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5966748/shutterclosed.jpg" target="_blank">https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5966748/shutterclosed.jpg</a><br>
<br />The shutter still works, in the way that all the time is correct (1s, 1/2s etc..). However when I recock the shutter (using a screwdriver), it doesnt feel normal. the cocking screw doesnt "spring back" if I pull out half way like other lenses. It seems like a spring connecting to this cocking screw is broken. However it looks like it can still be mounted on the camera. I have not tried it on the camera yet, afraid it would jam. </p>
<p>Could anyone advise what step I should take now. Many thanks!</p>
