[QUOTE="stmv, post: 796409, member: 10038"] [LEFT][COLOR=#000000]I was hiking in pouring rain, and even though I had the lens in a baggy, and a pouch, all the movement, and such, must have open the plastic bag, and moisture got into my 100 mm 2.8. I carried this lens because worse case, its fairly cheap to replace (around 80 dollars), I did the oven dry, and such, and the moisture is gone, but do see that leftover water stain, darn. I know I can have it repaired/cleaned, but in the meantime, I managed to find a never used (brand NEW!) one for 120 dollars. That just blows my mind that you can still find left over stock, or lens that are in the original packaging, unused. I'll drop the other off to my repair shop for an estimate, if the cost is more 60 dollars, hard choice, but it is an amazing lens. yes, the 100 mm is sharp, super small, and ultra smooth, and this was considered a low quality cheap lens at one time, but one of my favorite hiking lens because it is so small with no distortion, and sharp sharp sharp.
