lens condition [newbie here]

[qiang]

hi im a newbie here :sweat:

a questions to ask the experts here, is it possible to send the lens to csc to clean up the external part and replace a part of the lens ( eg, focus ring. ) because i had accidentally make some marks on the part

any bros have this experience before care to share?

Yes, but generally the whole barrel will need to be replaced and it's not cheap to do so. If it's just cosmetic then really, just leave it.

I think the best person to answer your question will be the people from csc. Why donlt you call or make a trip to csc to solve your doubts. Unless you are selling away the lens, I think you should save the money unless the focus ring is giving you problems related to getting quality photos.

If it's external barrel non rotating inward parts, can always cover with gaffer tape, the rubber ring thingy can't do anything unless :













You sell it as 2nd hand and buy a new one which is a huge loss
