p.2 #1Is this fungus?
Well some updates. Some good news and some ok news.

Good news is that the technician sees no signs of fungus. He took the lens back for about 15 minutes, and said he cannot see any fungus. He was an older guy from a very reputable place here in PDX, and said that it was not fungus.

The ok news is that it cost $109 to get the lens cleaned, which I will probably do in the near future, just for piece of mind and to get some of the dust cleaned out.

The guy just refunded me $25. I am sure if it was fungus or if the camera place wanted money, they would have said it was fungus. It takes about 2-3 weeks turnaround for the lens to be cleaned and such. I showed him my pictures (the ones I posted here) and said I think this is fungus. He said it isn't (after looking at the lens with whatever microscope or tools they use..).

I will be for sure when i send the lens in.
