Hi all
So I bought this lens off ebay as a barely used lens and I'm having real trouble getting the focus to be clear. This is the best I can get the focus at a distance of just over 1.5 meters Yfrog Image : yfrog.com/7fdsc6540ej
compared with the best focus I can get from my 18-55mm kit lens Yfrog Image : yfrog.com/5xdsc6541gj I was wondering if any of you had any idea whether it's been damaged or I'm doing something wrong? I've been using it on a tripod to minimise movement. It uses manual focus only and there doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary with the function of the lens so I don't really understand what could be the problem. Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I couldn't see a technical thread. Any help would be great as I don't really want to have wasted money!
Thanks
