Ouch. Maybe worth an e-mail to Stephen Gandy, the Camera Quest Voigtlander 
guy before you throw it in the ocean.

Subject: [Leica] Question about my poor broken lens.


Hello everybody,

    I had what I like to call a "Bonk" moment last night.  Where for no 
reason at all my Voigtlander 28mm F1.9 slipped out of my
hands and smacked the floor.

Nothing seemed apparently broken until I checked the focus ring and noticed 
the extreme stiffness when rotating it.  Does anyone
know what is actually broken?

Just trying to decide if it is worth fixing considering the price of the 
lens.  Where can I send it to get fixed? Is it worth
shipping it out to DAG or Sherry Krauter?

 I am thinking that if it is $225 and under I will fix it, anything above 
and I will have to consider it. Any opinions or
suggestions will be appreciated.

Thank you;

Alvaro Sendon
