Group,

Should we have a mass-mailing to Cameta asking if this is the
same lens they said was Mint- and sold to a person in Australia who
then had to return it because of the huge amount of Fungus in it and
took a hefty shipping charge loss in the process?

I'm serious -- maybe something like that en-mass
from our group would scare the p*ss out of Cameta.

At least for a little while.
