    I think i damaged my lens because im a stupid b , i basically dont put my front and back caps on , the small lens on back is quite badly scratched , all my studio pictures are very hazy , anything over f3,are basically useless. Can i get this repaired .?

    Its a pity because i haveny had it long and it took lovely pictures when i 1st got it. Its 2nd hand so i cant send it back . Wouldnt get anywhere anyway and rightly so.

    Any help for a old fool people

    How badly scratched ? Nothing you can really do about it except see if you can get the rear element replaced. Is it MF ? AF ?

    Even if it wasn't second hand I doubt you could send it back. You damaged it yourself from negligence.
    Maybe you could get the scratches polished out of the rear element? Say goodbye to any coating though.
