I got 50mm f1.7 M a few days ago, for under a fiver. Full of fungus. It was very easy to strip down and clean. I have been taking some test shots with it, today.

It is an amazingly sharp lens! I would say sharper than my A 50 F1.7, which baffles me, as I thought that they were optically identical.
I really do think it is the sharpest 50, I have ever used.
My intention was to clean and sell it, but having been wowed by It's quality, I may well keep it.
No man is worth his salt, who has not been banned from at least one Forum, and two Flickr groups.

Perhaps you need to strip and clean the SMCP-A 50mm now then.
