I understand you can remove the yellowing of certain rare-earth element glass lenses that have yellowed with age. Like the Konica 57mm/1.2. Besides the "brightly lit" room method, I understand you can bleach it with prolonged exposure to UV light. What kind of UV light specifically? Like a UV blacklight? Or the type of UV light you would use to sterilize things? or {}
Yeah, but I'd rather leave it in a closet with a light, as we have six mischievous dogs and my lens would end up as a toy.
Oh. Didn't know mischievous dogs were in the mix. =] I found a thread on Flickr which discusses using UV light to get rid of yellowing on the lens. Basically one poster found the yellowing decreased by using a regular UV blacklight. It's slower but safer (for humans). Hope this helps.
