It's probably not worth cleaning, IQ is probably mediocre at best. Look for a 28 from one of the major makers, will be night and day better.

make a shot of the rear of the lens and post it here, then someone will be able to tell you how to get to the element with fungus
(this is for the repair section of the forum )

Sounds like you have the desire and the necessary skills...proper tool(s) may be next requirement. Wink

Post a photo of the camera side of the lens for more help. Likely it (and possibly the entire rear group) is probably held by a large ring nut that should be removed using a lens spanner wrench (or suitable substitute).
