Hey Everyone,
I am having an issue with my 50mm 1.4D AF. Last year, I noticed (after a bit of focusing problems) that the coating on the front element looked like it was flaking off or smudged on the inside, not the outside front surface. When viewed at an angle, you can see it plain as day. When viewed straight on or thru the lens, you can't see it.
I do remember a few years back I was getting a funny Greenish "ghosting in certain shots when in direct sunlight.
I had it repaired, yet I noticed it again a few days ago. Does this sound like a defective lens...should I just get on the phone with Melville and ask for a replacement?
Thanks in advance,
C
