Wedge thats impressive skills there!! How did you manage it?? :D

My 55-200 VR Lens is stuck at 165mm and doesn't always focus perfectly because it fell off my worktop. I thought it still performed alright though. I did have a few focusing issues but seems ok.

Great little lens, so sharp but so cheap (I haveone) which I also dropped, sent mine to nikon to fix, cost me about £60.00, my piccys more luck than judgment, just set to continous fire with my nifty fifty @ f/2.8 ;)

@steveo - Awesome colours, I like those a lot. I never find bright coloured bugs like that!

@Wedge - Most entertaining set, although the wife is now on about getting a dog when our daughter is older... cheers, thanks a lot...! :D

Think I might try sending it back to them then. Another quote I had was £55 parts £75 Labour so I didn't bother. Nothing like a bit of luck :D
