Does the black paint on the brass internals surrounding the rear optics the lens wear thin or flake off or is it hard wearing?
Asked by: Hanns
Thank you, however I would like to hear that from users who have actually used the lens over a span of time... flaking micro paint bits in the shutter assembly is not something I want to risk based off an answer from someone who doesn't own and use the black lens.
