Can someone please tell me that the lense is not faulty as im 99 percent sure it is, Basically when you turn the focus ring (the one nearest the body) the reading behind the little glass window should move, mine doesnt, plus when mounted on D300 it will not AF in any shape or form, all contacts look clean straight etc, plus one other concern is when you mount the lense on the body even with it turned off obviously it sounds as if the VR is kicking in. The figure behind the glass window is stuck on 3 which to me explains why the thing dont wanna play
