Broken lens

[ADragon]

Hi I'm not actually sure how I did this but it seems like I've broken my ef 100mm macro L lens. It lives with my other lenses in my camera pack thats nice and padded and none of my other lenses have any issues but on trying to use it this week it seemed to rattle and will no longer focus so obviously sonething has come lose inside. so I was wondering if there anywhere I could get it repaired. I did look at replacement but the prices seem to have gone up since I bought mine last year and there is no way I can aford 800 on a second hand lens

Have you checked the AF/MF switch isn't stuck midway, try switching it a fews times.

Shows how long it is since I bought new kit or got any fixed. I'm still on Fuji XT2's. Sorry for the brain fart

Type "Canon EF 100mm Macro L - IS Rattling:Banging Issue" into Youtube and also then "fix broken ef 100mm macro L lens" . . . might help.

Don't use Fixation they are far too expensive and there are issues with them charging for unnecessary work.

There are plenty of reputable repairers that will not rip you off like Fixation.
