->> Hey guys,
There seems to be some sort of issue on internal threads of the new 70-200 see:

I checked mine...and while the threads look fine...you can see very very minor imperfections in the threads...I cant see how they would affect anything, but what do you all think???

->> I had to reeeeeeally check to see anything. And its very hard to position the lens to see that set of threads...i guess at 200mm it shows the best...but its not noticeable. In fact my first reaction was how did anyone find this in the first place. Since its unlikely that we will disassemble the lens...what issue could it possibly have to performance? I cant think of any...but apparently there will be some statement from Nikon regarding it
