I have a Canon EX Auto SLR. The lens is not interchangeable, but the front element is. A couple months ago, I discovered that the camera had a lot of fungus growing on the mirror and lens elements(it hadn't been used for 15 years). I took the camera to a local repair shop. The repairman took a look at it and charged me $80, saying it was extremely hard to clean, due to the fixed lens. I got it back 5 days ago. I checked it, and found that the mirror still has quite a bit of fungus on it. I live in an pretty dry area, so I don't believe this was caused by the weather/humidity. I think that if I don't do something soon, the fungus will start multiplying again inside the camera. I feel that I've been cheated by the repair shop. Does anyone have any opinions about this?
