This can add up.
Thats $145/surface, plus disassembly.
Imagine the cost of overhaul of a 7-element lens, or 15-element zoom
For RARE lenses only !

I wonder what it costs to get a MC on one element and how it would affect a non coated lens. If its only the outside of the outer element thats damaged 145$ could be worth it on alot of lenses. imho. (if you disassemble yourself)

Arax in Ukraine used to offer MC (re-)coating of lens for cheap (50 US$ per lens element including two way shipping) but this service is no more available

Besides the New Zealand outfit in Attila's link, are there anyone else who can do this? I know focalpoint in US can do it, but their prices are very high, higher than this NZ guy. I wish Arax still does this |
