Hey guys,
Horror story here. I just picked up a Nokton 35mm 1.2 from a fellow RFFer and the lens came in immaculate condition. Of course, on the first day I had it, I slipped and fell on some concrete with the Nokton/M6 on my shoulder. Hadn't even shot half a roll with it yet. The hood took a beating (though I was able to bend it back into place for the most part) and the glass is fine but now there seems to be the slightest bit of play in the focus ring of the lens. It's almost nothing but it's definitely there now. The M6 didn't take any damage from what I can tell.
Anyone know what may have happened to the inner workings of the lens and if it is possibly repairable? I really don't have much knowledge of lens guts but I am sure many of you do. I'm just incredibly bummed out about it and looking for some good news if at all possible...
