n00b question: How to examine a lens for haze?
First off, this forum is just awesome. Because of all the great information on this site, I'm ready to confidently venture into manual focus zooms and primes.
I'm kind of stumped trying to find a method for detecting whether a lens has haze. I've found on other parts of the forum how to tell whether a lens has fungus or dust, but I can't find very much info on how to detect haze. Is there some easy way to tell? The best I could come up with is shining a pen light laterally across the lens and looking for a hazy "coating" that obscures the image on the other end of the lens. Any advice?
Thanks,
Kevin
