Thanks Lluis, but I don't need it. I think I will add it to the place I 
normally put lenses with fungus :-)

They're not going to get any until the cooler shorter evenings draw in over the winter, so I dug out a Pentax MX which used to work fine the last time I used it. Sadly the battery cover was stuck - hence the vinegar bath. I freed it after a good soak, and ran a film through it, but discovered the shutter curtains were capping at the higher speeds. It's another job for the winter. I gave him one of my Spotmatics which thankfully worked. On the MX shutter capping, does anyone have a link to photos of the brake lube point?

>> Industar 50 - Given this lens along with a few old film cameras and lenses by a friend of mine a few weeks ago. The lens had been picked up by him in Dresden in 1990 a few months after the Berlin wall fell and has a rough (badly hand made) leather case with the initials VP in Cyrillic on it. However, when the lens is held up to the light, it tells a sad story of living with a fungal infection for far too many years, and has reached paperweight status. Sony A7ii with a 28-70 macro zoom - I think.
