Don&#039;t worry about the lenses Roger tears down, apparently most of the rental lenses get the same treatment at some point (to fix dust or optical problems after being rented, as well as fix new lenses that aren&#039;t up to spec).

Given that Roger has more experience and testing equipment than nearly any official repair center we&#039;re all hoping he starts a repair business on the side someday, any lens going through there will come out better than new, we just need to convince him to go for it.]]></description>
