Hello all!
I've had a 35-135mm Vario-sonnar for a few months now and it performs very well. However, it suffers from dreadful zoom creep. Is this normal for this lens, or have I acquired a well-used, but cosmetically very good, specimen? I've had a 70-210mm VS for around 20 years and that has no creep at all.
If the creep is not normal does anybody know if it can be fixed? I'd like to use the lens with a camera mounted on a tripod and take longish exposures from time to time, but with the lens movement it's not possible at the moment.
