I suspect the mount must be machined to take the paint spots. Else
the paint would rub off about the third time you mounted the lens.
And it is not a bad price by the spot. :-)
Although just entering the focal length and widest F-stop the way
Nikon does for manual focus lenses seems easier if not as elegant.
