Subject: Re: [Leica] Dust In The Lenses

If you bought them new that way I would take them back.  Dust can cause 
flare when shooting with the sun in the frame.  The scratches are less 
likely to be a problem, but should NOT be in a new lens.

I experienced the dust problem with a Zeiss lens, and it DID make a 
difference.

Best Wishes
