Cleaning of Cron 50

[newghost]

I received my ver 4 cron 50 yesterday (got it from the bay) and found there's a tiny strand of hair between the glass elements. You probably can't see it unless you scrutinise... may or may not affect picture quality but its certainly an eyesore to me!

I'm thinking of sending the lens in to one of the local repairman for it to be cleaned, anyone has any recommendation? (P&G? / Mr Tay? / Fatigue? / camera hospital? / anyone else that specialises in m mount?)

Appreciate any helpful advice! TIA!

Bro as spoken don't bother since it focus well n smooth. If u really want to do it, go back to leica for a piece of mind. enjoy the lens n Get M9 soon!

cleaning lens from de camera consultant is abt 100-150. if it bothers you then send it in for cleaning.

My lenses some have cleaning mark, some got fungus mark, as long as there is pictures, I dont really bother....


Not worth spending $$ to clean out one strand of hair

Thanks all, will most likely leave it as is... next time you see a 50 cron (with a strand of hair) coming up in the B/S section, you know where its from!

Thanks for including me in your list of options.

But honestly, it's not worth opening a lens just for a small strand of hair.
It could be just a small dust, just magnified by the lens.
