   Thanks for the concern toni! 

 

    .....except for having the advantage of a faulty lens for a knock down price, I'm not looking for more lens strip downs, especially when it is hopelessly de-centered on a hardly used lens........ they can be found new for €360 new (grey market of course)

 

    I'll just have to be patient for another.......one that just works!
