Re: Collection......
Do any of the old cameras and lenses you have get any fungus growing in them? I have dug out my old Pentax Spotmatic and the standard lens has a growth in the lens. This is inside the lens, not the external surfaces. The local photo shop will not service a lens with fungus as the place they send it to will not touch a fungal infected lens due to contamination issues.

Re: Collection......
"Contamination issues" hunh? What do they expect is growing in there... Bubonic Plague?
Here is one way to try to clean it yourself that came up with a google search. A little bit of mold may not affect the images produced by the lens in any noticable way if you don't do anything.

Re: Collection......
I got the impression they don't want fungus around their workbenches and tools. That link was a good demonstration on cleaning fungal infected lenses. Not sure I would be confident of doing a good job myself. I will try another shop to see if they can sort out the fungus.
