Hi, I have a minolta 70 - 210 MD lens and a 135mm MD lens for my X-700 camera. They were stored for years and are both full of fungus and a local repair shop told me that it would cost more to disassemble and clean than the lenses were worth. Does anyone know of a good reference repair manual for disassembly of these lenses, how to clean them of fungus, and how difficult this job is? I am quite handy with mechanical repair but haven't yet tackled a lens. Both lenes are in excellent shape otherwise and it would be a shame not to restore them to operating condition. thanks for your help. larry
