This is an horrendous story- your worst nightmare. Tell me, is fungus a problem with only Leica lenses? I have never come across it before. As someone already mentioned, Leica now sell the lens in a humidor box as used for cigars so maybe they should take some responsibility for Noctilux lenses not supplied as such. And would silica gel prevent the problem? I wish your friend well in resolving his problem
