p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Nikon 24-70mm decentre type issue?


Hi guys,

I've recently started noticing some weird anomalies with my 24-70mm.

I get random areas of blur / out of focus in my images, it's noticeable at the wider end (24mm to 30mm) but isn't at the edges, it can be slightly off centre left or right, it's not specific.

I first noticed the issue on my formal wedding portraits when randomly someone or something in the shot will be out of focus but everything around it won't be.

Anybody else experienced this type of issue or have any experience getting this type of issue repaired or serviced?

Thanks in advance
Mike

I did on my first copy of that lens years ago after lots of use. I sent it in for repair (Authorized Photo Service in IL) and it came back better than new. I think one of the elements out out of place or something.

Random blur in the scene makes me think of subject movement.
I am whispering this to myself, not wanting anyone to hear it. Lenses I use often that become 4 years old or a little more are sent to Nikon service with some sort of complaint. Like slow focus, tightening area in zoom action or whatever. They do a full splash of cleaning, lubing, focus adjustment and more, under warranty.
