EF-M Lenses: Not as durable as I thought...

Thank You!

Thank you all for that. I think maybe, that because the lenses are small, they might have lighter, but weaker zoom cam systems. I have noticed this because:

1) The 55-200 still zooms, but you can hear a clicking sound telling you it has come out of place.

2) The 15-45 can be forced out of retraction position (I wish probably that I didn't do this).

By the way, I treat my 1DX Mark II, my Sigma's (in fact all except the M100, 15-45, and 55-200) VERY CAREFULLY. In fact, I have all the packaging and still use it. My M100 is more of a 'use and abuse' camera.
