A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Touching metal pins in lens mount (alien.top)

I checked the metal pins of a lens mount (sony E) to see if they were still retracting well and was wondering if touching them once would cause enough skin oil to get on them to corrode them.

I’d just throw the lens away now. No point keeping it after touching them pins.
