- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
I just purchased a Canon EF-s 18-135mm IS lens with some damage to the front element. It shows a couple of light scratches and a bit of pitting. I realize the front element can be changed, but if it works as is without having to change the glass, I think I'll just leave it alone. My question is, would leaving it alone have a negative effect on the good glass elements in time? I bought this lens as a backup for my extra Canon 40d. I paid $50.00 for it, and thought I'd take a gamble. Lens arrived this afternoon, and this is what it looks like. Pits only appear on the outer portion of the outer element. Can't see any problem with photos. Wondering if there's a way to remove the pits, or maybe I should leave it as is.
Thanks,
Mike
