My locking ring on my 100-400L is getting pretty loose. (I bought it used) and was wondering if it is worth it sending it in to Canon to have it serviced? Just looking for some opinions.
Thanks

I suggest doing a search for that info in this forum. Somebody posted the cost, but I don't remember the what it was. Just recall that it seemed expensive. I wouldn't do it unless the lock ring has failed completely

I agree with blueM

Mine is a bit loose, but it still holds the lense from creeping so I figure why bother.
