Hi there,

I dropped my lens (Canon 24-70 f2.8 mk1) from around 1,8 metres while adjusting my tripod, i think the camera was not secured properly. So far nothing is broken. but the zoom ring is sort of stiff around 24-30mm, and it makes a horrible sound, much like the sound ski pants make while "grinding" together. I am very sure something is not right, but i would like some help as to what it could be, so i can figure out what i will do with the lens.

Thanks!

Send it in to Canon. I don't think we will be a ton of help on it really

+1. Not really anything else to do. The repair might be more than it is worth--Canon repairs are pretty pricey these days.
