I have a new 90 Summicron-R that does the same thing -- too much pressure on the focusing ring and it binds. The really interesting aspect is that it is worse when the camera is held in Portrait mode (shutter button up). After the holidays it's going back to Leica NJ for a checkup. Until then, I'm enjoying using it too much. Rob Schneider Jim Laurel wrote: > I have been using this lens for some months now, and I can report that there > are no quality problems in evidence.
