I don't know what a CLA on a 50/1.4 would run, but I'd say that it's
probably on the line of "economic feasibility." One not-so-minor
consideration, though.... how much "sentimental value" does the lens
hold? If it were the original 50/1.4 that you bought new 20 years ago
and used to take all your kids' pictures with, then you *might* wanna
get it fixed even though 'nuther one could be had for a few dollars more.
Don't mind me.... I'm still justifying sinking more money into a CLA for
my bought-new-in-82 OM-10 than it was worth! :-)))
Regards,
Chris
