Really tough. I'd be unhappy  |
Got it back just now. So far I've only looked at it through the camera LCD, taking some test photos of a lens cloth at an angle, but it has no front focus or back focus issues at all. Everything looks really damn good.
You can tell the inner part of the barrel that extends for the zoom has been replaced. Previously it had some visible wear, where you could tell it had been zoomed in and out many thousands of times... now it looks brand new again. He conveniently "forgot" to bring the work order slip home from his office. I'm really curious what the fuck happened to it... but it looks and works perfect so that's all I can ask for I suppose.
Very very glad to have it back. This would have sucked to have to replace!
