Salt Peanuts Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 what is the tape trick? my 43-86 push-pull is as tight as it was new, i imagine (any tighter and it would be a bit of a struggle to zoom), but i like to know trickses. You put a piece of electrical tape on the length of the barrel where the push-pull ring moves, giving extra resistance for the ring. With black tape on the underside of the lens, it's hardly noticeable. I'm sure there are more elegant solutions for fixing the zoom creep, but it only takes a minute or so and virtually free, provided you already have an electrical tape. I'd just need to remember to change the tape periodically so that it doesn't get nasty as electrical tape tends to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreadhead Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Getting ready to ride to Cali? Cycling is like every other hobby there's always something to buy but I am honestly running out of stuff. It's approaching the wall of unable to justify in most cases.

n_maher Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 ^^^ Nice. Should match/stack well with the Adcom pre that I have. I'll still casually hunt for a RR2150 but this buys time and more importantly will get me up and running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Close, but my peaked lapels are not as wide. Also, I have been a Cleaner in a number of situations, although they involve less blood. It's an evening black tie optional wedding. Just knuckled under and figured I can't go wrong with a tux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
