sandro Posted April 17 Share #2 Posted April 17 Not in my photographic equipment. Seems there's a lot of cleaning to do in order to prevent that grease to travel where you absolutely don't want it. Lex Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdjackson Posted April 18 Share #3 Posted April 18 A recent Voigtlander lens I purchased came new out of the box with excess grease on the rear. I just wiped it off and it hasn’t returned. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
