    I recently purchased a canon D60 on ebay (real Bargain)
    got a Sigma 70-200mm lens with it but the middle element is incredibly dusty and needs to be cleaned badly(this was mentioned in the listing on ebay as a reason for the great price)
    anyone know anywhere in Dublin offering reasonably priced lens cleaning?

    What do the images look like?

    Chances are that you will not notice anything on the image itself.

    Are you sure it isn't fungus?
    It's very odd that dust would only be on one element (I do lens/camera repairs etc... and have never seen dust on only one element, always fungus)

    MMMmm is possibly fungus so. the images are really cloudy and desaturated. I took a few and was able to get "acceptable" pics by adjusting the contrast and colour balance in post
    I say acceptable in the broadest sense

    If you want I could take a look at it? PM me if you are interested. It's probably fungus from the sound of it.
