Just got a good deal of this lens from an auction site and it was marked as “JUNK”. The hell with this “JUNK” and mold warning from the seller, I wanted it. As you can see, it’s so dirty both front and rear.

First thing to start is to buy lens cleaning kit. In my case, I bought the cheapest kit I can afford. Hehehe. Then let’s start browsing the Net for some information on how to disassemble this lens. Off we go, now!

Screw driver is pointing at the the point where we should start. Only one screw to unscrew.

As you can see, there are another three screws to unscrew to lift off the lens. Once you’ve done with this, you’ll see this similar disassembling.

Finally, after carefully rubbing the lens with the cleaning kit, I was using lens tissue and cleaning liquid, this lens is becoming more beautiful than before. However, at some parts, a few of fungus traces are visible but ignorable in terms of photography image.
