Hi,

I know of an Olympus 35-70 zuiko lens for sale in a shop in Malta, for
some $90.  It has a problem with the preview button however.  Whilst the
diaphragm moves normally when you select the separate apertures via the
ring, pressing the preview button makes the little protruding 'thing'
that moves stay to the 'preview' side.  It does not return to its normal
position when you release the button, meaning that you are, in practice,
always 'depth-of-field' previewing!!!  Now, do you think it is worth the
money, and can I repair it myself?  If not, what price might I try and
negotiate?  Also is that a normal price for a second hand zuiko 35-70?

regards

Konrad Pizzuto
