Has anybody had this problem? I had purchased the 100-400from ebay to go with my Olympus m1 ii. Company from Korea. OEM box. Initially lens was tight fitting on cam. After the third use the seal was coming off lens. I than noticed the base was pulled a bit off lens. Two screws appeared to have loosened although they were still "tight." I sent lens back to Korea. They said I mishandled lens of which I did not. It is such an excellent lens and I really would like to repurchase it but am hesitant as I do not know if it was a lens problem or what. Any ideas? I am very careful with my equipment and there is NO WAY I dropped it or such.. Ohhh, I did get my money back after having to escalate it to resolution center..

My 100-400 is solid in fit and finish and your experience is the first I have read about such an assembly problem. I'm glad you got your money back and I recommend you purchase this lens again.

My 100-400 is beautifully well put together and has been used daily for 6 months.
