I have just received a Yashica 124G that I won on Ebay. The condition of the camera was said to be excellent, but upon receipt, there is a clear and obvious scratch on the front of the objective lens. I would say it is around 1mm in size, and it isn't a 'hair' type of scratch. It looks more like something has hit the lens.
Do you honestly think this will affect the quality (assuming there are no light leaks etc!) of any images I shoot?
I would never consider buying any lens if there was any scratch on it. This scratch wasn't mentioned in the ebay description (it was said to be 'excellent').
I have contacted the seller but he insists there are no scratches and he is refusing a refund.
The final price was pretty low, but I wouldn't normally spend any money on something with a flaw. It would just annoy the heck out of me.
