I have discovered some kind of insurgency taking place behind the rear element of my 24-70. I don't know if its an insect or general detritus or both but I don't exactly know how either got in given the sizes.
Anyway Id appreciate if you'd take a look at pic 1 at postulate and or suggest a solution. Im tempted to go in there myself but for the sake of €/$ 50 would it begetter to give it to a independent tech repair, given that I haven't dismantled a lens before.
Second item is a manual Nikkor 50mm 1.8. Stops below f4 don't register on the cameras viewfinder, that is to say the camera show f0. Beyond f4 on lens f stops register on the camera as f1 up to f7, f7 being f22 on the lens. Question! If theres no electronic connection how is the camera reading anything?.
