The scenario , you have a lens for which you paid upwards of 12k 7 years ago it still looks as new as the day it came out of the factory. You send it in for service because it is not performing quite as well as it used to and the servo stalls.
The OEM service centre say to you, we regret we are no longer able to repair this lens it is outside our warranty support period.
Don’t give up most problems can be solved without recourse to the OEM under such circumstances and you lens can very probably be returned to its original specification. Paul Chapman at Van Diemen Films Optical service centre will be Glad to help with advice and support.
