wad lens is tht? I would recommend repair if it is $300 and above as heng front element only. Why never put filter??? If you want buy new one, you can giv tht to me
It's a Tamron 18~200... Sony mount... Ya, luckily only the front element, but sad because just 2 months old sia... :bheart:
I was using the Raynox 250 for macro shots, so didn't put filter... Filter can prevent this kind of accidents???
wait. what burn?!
Ya..
The heat all mainly go to the filter wad, its not like u put the raynox inside the lens or in between the filter and the front element:bsmilie:
Wow. Maybe should move thread to macro section to let other Raynox user beware of this. I can imagine u must be too busy wiping off sweat during the shoot to notice it.
wow... this is a first.
how long did u point it at the sun?
I have no idea... Since I hold my breath during shots, probably 20 secs...
but why did you do a macro on Mr Sun....:bsmilie::dunno:
Did it melt the plastic or the glass element?
If its just the plastic it should be fine ? Unless the melted plastic moved to other parts of the lens..
I dont think glass can melt so easily right??
maybe you should send it in for servicing... you might never know if there's something wrong with the sensor after that ant-frying incident..
Hmm... How should I tell the servicing centre? Will need to pay???
