Lens Cleaning

ianphua · 21st July 2003

Nikon Singapore is quoting $85 to clean and service my AF 85mm f1.8.

Is this reasonable pricing? or can get better price elsewhere?

They are only charging you $1 for every mm, it is very reasonable, go for it.

always go to them for cleaning. they have right equipment to get the precision of the lens back at least. not so sure abt other shops outside.

Kok King,

Thanks for the suggestion. I have considered that after seeing your thread in PM. But, I risk the postage/handling if I send to Malaysia. So, i thought I should just pay up to Nikon Singapore.
