Nikon 17-35 Focus Ring Issue

I think the lens and/or camera is simply (and perhaps justifiably) confused when you try to focus on something that is much closer than the minimum focus distance, as in your video. It doesn't seem fair to expect the camera and lens to know what to do when the subject is two inches away.

My 17-35 took an unfortunate tumble out of my car a few weeks ago and I can't really observe "normal" focus behavior on it now since the focus is fairly stiff now.

 

With that said, the behavior you're showing was normal both on my lens and on all my other AF-S lenses(really all my AF lenses for that matter) when trying to focus on something too close.
