Alright....calling all lens gurus, who do you recommend professionally clean the interior of a lens which has old fungus? This assumes the lens is worth the expense to have it cleaned and the professional can ensure the cells are properly reinstalled. Have you used the professional you are recommending? Your insight is appreciated. Thank you. Jon

What is the make-up of the lens Jon? I either do them myself or they don't get done.

Jim, the one I have in mind is a 210mm Kowa. I have the tools to remove the cells, but not having done it before, I am hesitant to learn with this lens. Jon

Good call Jon. The Kowa 210 is a lens I managed to destroy trying to loosen for cleaning.
