[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 36434, member: 6548"] Here is something you might do with that new wide angle Nikkor of your's...I took a gander at mine tonight and looked at that photo of your's and I think this might be a possibility for you... From your picture I gather that your fungi problem is on the front element of your lens...looking at mine it appears that it would be very simple to remove the front element if one had a spanner wrench (see link following...there are cheaper ones available too I think) [URL="http://www.micro-tools.com/store/item_detail.aspx?ItemCode=SP1"]Spanner Wrench, Lens Ring Tool[/URL] Basically you pop off the front element and clean it up...DIY You don't have much to lose and a lot to gain! :) It is just my way of thinking but I would keep that lens away from my camera body...more so than my other lenses...until I was able to get it cleaned up. Here is a shot of mine...haven't took a picture since July with my F2...and take a look at what lens I have had mounted on it since then... :) [IMG]http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o113/runwhatyoubrung/2835.jpg[/IMG] Play around with that fast 50 you got...I think it will grow on you more then you could imagine!
