    Troubleshooting a beercan

    All,

    I have been given a Minolta AF/70-210 which for some reason is only going as far as 150 and then it won't move any further. Before I go to a fixing shop and look a complete eejit, can anyone give me a couple of ideas as to what I should check first?

    Thanks everyone

    Sorry for the delay in replying, kept forgetting to get my beercan out of the bag, in the car! to check it out. There isn't really anything I can tell you to check for, in normal operation the zoom from 70 - 210 is/should be smooth and easy, if it's jamming at 150, then I'd say something is wrong with the gearing and I'd recommend a trip to the Fixers.
