I looked this up before creating this thread. I took delivery of some new gear of mine that I purchased overseas secondhand, one of the lenses was the HC 80mm 2.8 and from the test shots on my X1D with no auto focus it is really sharp. Only thing I have noticed is the focus barrel that extends has a bit of free play in the barrel, I had a look at all the screws under the focus ring rubber and all of them are tight.

Is this normal on this lens? I know it sounds odd asking that but I know on some cheaper glass there's some wiggle for the focus normally.

Cheers in advance for your responses, I don't get on here much but when I do I will respond back.

Thanks,
Simon
