Hi,
I bought a Nikon AF 50/f1.8 lens on ebay and it turns out the lens has some fungus inside. Is it easy to disassemble an af lens for cleaning? It looks very plasticky and different from my older Nikon & Pentax lenses.

Return it...

Why would you buy a lens with fungus.

It probably messed up the lens coatings
