me Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 obtain some isopropyl alcohol - 91% or higher in concentration. Take a q-tip (that's a cotton bud, right?), dip it in the alcohol, apply it to the lens (clear thing in the middle of the MD, to the right of the motor spindle). Only put a very small drop on (like... moisten the q-tip, don't get a giant visible drop on it). If that doesn't help, send it to sony for repair.

David Popovits_ Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 Please do not use alcohol, as some MD lens are plastic made (not glass) and you may make thinks worse. After cleanning try to readjust in test mode. If it wouldn't help go to a good repair shop or buy yourself a new MD David Popovits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
