I think the point is that this is a project that interests Frank for its
educational or diversional value. And I've personally found that it takes
me no more than 15 minutes to make a sticky 1.8 work well again using my
quick & dirty method, so do the math: I've made $20 in 15 minutes. Thats $80
an hour tax free. And, after all, you are making a Zuiko useable again,
however lowly it may be - surely an endeavour of some honor!
Of course, conversion to a loupe is no dishonorable retirement for a 50/1.8
either...
