My Canon 100-400L mk 1 ( trombone action) will focus at 100 and at 400mm but at everything in between whirrs and clicks but will not focus.
It is out of warranty but has been carefully and not excessively used
I wrote to Fixation UK (authorised Canon repairs)who quoted me £130 ex VAT for labour but were unable to tell me what if anything might be required. They will give a free estimate but not "on the spot"
Obviously my situation is compounded by living in Spain but I have the chance to get the lens to UK in person as I am popping over to see family soon and can get it to them in London. They can then parcel it back to me
So questions for you please
1. Any thoughts on what the likely problem is - this might give me an idea of final cost of repair &/or if it's worth it.
2. Anyone dealt with Fixation UK - Ok or not?
Thanks in advance chaps
