Canon 50mm F1.2, early, in LTM

Let us know what price they quote you. My 50/1.2 shows staining on one element. I may consider having Kanto replace the element if the price is reasonable.

Just heard back from Kanto. Total cost would be about $375 for the haze-prone element replacement. That includes part, labor, tax (Japan) but does not include return shipping by expensive Fed EX or DHL.

For my recurrent haze problem, I'll stick to the occasional local CLA for now.
