My other concern is that there is a protective filter over the opening of the mount on the lens which I do not recall seeing on any other lens in the past. This may be something that protects from dust or the like. I noticed a comment on the followup replies to the OP that the FTZ rubber did not fit quite right on the 28SE. As this was a special edition, that may be why. Agree about the torque screwdriver and am a little concerned that swapping back while doable, may also have unhappy results with the performance of the lens as it may not be to spec. I would not be a happy camper! All the S lens I have and use are very well made and I am quite happy with, but this is the first time I have seen such a variance in the build, not the quality, of the individual lenses themselves.
