Somewhere safe in deepest Lancashire.
The body of this lens is in lovely almost unmarked condition, HOWEVER, though the front and rear elements are excellent some of the middle elements appeared to have what looked like faint signs of fungus. I sent the lens to Alan Marlow for cleaning but it turns out that it wasn't fungus after all. This is what his investigation revealed - quote 'It would appear that the cloudiness in the optical system is due to a failure of a coating or the failure of the adhesive that bonds two elements together (to form what we call a "Doubler" lens).' (I hope he won't mind me quoting him!) His recommendation was to replace the inner glass elements but none were available. Does it effect the lens? Well judge for yourselves in the examles below taken hand held in breezy conditions on Sunday afternoon in the rain and with the light failing. They are jpegs straight from the camera, cropped and resized for the web only, no other PP whatsoever. They are probably a tad under exposed but that's due to my carelessness.
Anyway I'm offering the lens for sale as is for £84.00 including UK post and paypal fees.
