Need some advice!

Just bought what is a mint 55 1.2 S.C inexpensive, except it is dusty inside.

I know these are easy to clean, but don't want to do it myself.

Where could I send it to have it cleaned?

APS ! The ones that repaired Nikko ? Gotta be easier than sending it to HK and back where Rick lives !

I have used APS a couple of times for the lenses too complicated for me to tackle on my own. Have not had a bad experience with them.

I just had my Nikon 20mm UD done by APS in preparation for selling it. Service was fast (5 day turn around) and I am very pleased with results. $43.00!

You REALLY needed another 55?

You definitely are cornering the market Rafael. My guess is you can't stop yourself from watching E-Bay auctions... as has been the case for me at various times along the way. Let us know where you send it for cleaning and what your experience was. I appreciate Jack offering clear guidance on the matter, including the price. This is useful information for all of us.

Love the panorama Jay. Where was this taken. More than most folks posting on this thread we really need a scorecard when it comes to your work, since you seem to ramble around this country so much. I see water in the mid-ground so I'm guessing a coast somewhere. Inquiring minds...

I love your micro work Ken B. You've dropped some really fine photos on the thread. I love this kind of work, especially in black and white where shadows and lines play such an important part. Keep them coming my friend.

Hey Curtis

Really great to have you back on a regular basis.

Visited a fine single malt distillery today .... carried the D810 and 15mm f3,5

Excellent Scotch ..... visiting Talisker on the weekend ....

An old travelling ground in a Citroen 2CV or Dyane .... you must remember those travels Curtis ....

These images make me sad. I've had to stop partaking from any form of alcohol.

I'll have to drink non-alcoholic beer if anyone drops by to sit on the porch.

Steve,

You are making me feel homesick. Been a while since I visited the Isle of Skye.
Are you doing a round trip via the ferry at Mallaig and back over the bridge at Kyle of Lochalsh?
That is a magnificent road trip - one I cycled as a teenager staying in Youth Hostels along the way.
Have you had any snow? Glencoe could be majestic.

Glen Turret is the nearest distillery to my home village of Comrie.
Cheers,
Colin

Curtis I see what you mean about the water, it really looks like shoreline but in fact, the dark area is grass land! The fire is located in the mile high grasslands about 25 miles SSE of Tucson.
There seems to be no end to places I wind up, but at least it makes for subject variety.

I feel your pain Leighton

I was supposed to drop off the alcohol after my time in the hospital on the run up to Christmas .....

Went dry for about 10 weeks .... but had to wean myself back on to the evil spirit !!

Well it's just so good ....

Moderation these days .... but I do like a tipple .... now and then of course.

Plus the drink drive laws in Scotland have got a lot stricter too ..... so care is the watchword !!

Hope you get to enjoy a dram or two again soon Leighton my friend !!
