Hi All... Over the last few years I've acquired/rescued a few bodies thru pawn-shops, yard sales, low-ball e-Bay auctions,etc.. Oftentimes these come with lenses which I haven't used 'cause the front element has a scratch. A post here a short while ago has been haunting me.." If you were to stick a small piece of post-it note or such to your front element and look thru the viewfinder, you can't tell the difference "...My question is..Do any of you guys shoot with lenses with small defects without incident? Or do you feel using a lens thats not at 100% somehow compromises results... I'm refering to 3-4mm scratches as on a 35-105 SMC-A f 3.5, not a fungus-and-haze basket case... OK guys...fess-up
