Pieter12 Posted 1 hour ago Share #1 Posted 1 hour ago Advertisement (gone after registration) Was the 30-90mm zoom made with the earlier AF motor, or does it date from when new motors were used? I have my eye on a used one, and thought I'd check with the forum before contacting Leica. Also, if I recall correctly, some have had issues with this lens not being sharp. Is that something that plagued early models or just random? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff S Posted 1 hour ago Share #2 Posted 1 hour ago The lens was released in 2012, while the final AF motor replacement solution was not achieved until around 2016/17. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff S Posted 50 minutes ago Share #4 Posted 50 minutes ago Back then, some reported sharpness falloff at the corners, and Leica was quite responsive regarding service or replacement. Times have changed, so contacting Leica regarding a specific lens, with picture evidence, would be the best approach IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
