Based on past unhappy experience from experienced photographer, how long for fungus to grow in len if not kept in Dry Cabinet? .........Just curious?
Oops that seems like bad news for me cos I also stay near Toh Yi area. However, seems strange that fungus still grow when lens kept in dry cabi which has almost constant humidity?? I certainly don't have this problem with my lens...
btw just curious . can i jus put silica gel in my bag only instead of a dry cab?my room no place to put already.bought my camera for 2 months leow now quite worried.:think::what:

I've got lots of lenses with dead fungus (etched). The best way to check is to use a high intensity light source like sunlight (careful though, you might cauterise your eye instead). Better to be using a halogen table lamp. Somehow flourecent, no matter how bright dosen't show the fungus as easily. When i checked with my halogen table lamp I could clearly see fungus all over the internal elements. When to shop to get it checked and the guy could not see anything. (Shop light is flourecent). So I told him to get a desk lamp and the fungus all appeared.any picture to teach me how to see fungus?
