Did I simply receive a poor copy of this lens (and should therefore re-order another copy), or is this a common problem of this lens' design? The unevenness is so slight that it would not bother me for stills shooting, but unfortunately 'smooth-ness' it is critical for 'zooming-during-video'.

Hi Joe,
My copy of this lens also has slightly 'sticky' / hesitant zoom just before 100mm and between 135 and 200mm
