Which lens is it? What is your budget? What is the warranty status? Not that fungus is covered by warranty but during that period you should stick to CSC.I just discovered fungus on my lens. Any recommendations on a good place where I can get it clean, besides Canon itself? Thanks
You can search for nick :Fatigue, he is a CS member. Email him about ur problem and the lens u have. He will contact u about the place to view your lens and clean it for u. Probably will take around 3 days before collecting depending on your lens condition, etc. I got fungus on my nikon 35mm f1.8, NSC quoted me S$133, fatigue just did it for me for S$35. Save almost S$100.
None of the Service Centers of other brands has a clean room either and given the fact that no lens is airtight it does not make much sense to have a clean room. It would be only for the cosmetics in the moment of handing over the equipment. You leave the room with your zoom lens, in front of the door you zoom in and out and the dust comes back. Or to put it into local slang: no economic benefit but a lot of additional costs (think about the airlock system, clothes etc).BTW, I spoke to a professional photographer and he said that Canon does not have a clean room to service lenses. So, aside from the skill of the repair person, the quality of cleaning should be comparable and very likely cheaper. He was not able to recommend a service center since all his equipment & services are sponsored by Canon.
