I read somewhere that strong UV radiation should make the yellowing
disappear. Of course, it was on a Pentax mailing list, and I cannot
find the posting claiming that. Any of you guys out there, skilled in

confirm it as a possibility for such unfortunate lenses.
55/1.2 is a cool lens otherwise, btw....
