[QUOTE="stmv, post: 98829, member: 10038"] Got the lens back from the deep scrub session, and it came out beautiful. super clean glass, no mold, no dust, and no scratches or smudges, great to see an old lens restored to almost new condition. I grabed a quick test shot, ISO 600, F 5.6, 1/200th of a second.. using a D700.. Hand held, Manual mode, and of course due to the lens, manual focused.
