Lol! Well, this one has survived forty years without a hitch, which is not something many of us can say about ourselves!
+1 I've owned the A15/3.5 and now have the K15/3.5AL version. No issues keeping the front element free from damage, as there is a built in hood.

I also walk around with the front cap on at all times and just remove it when I take a picture.

Great wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide angle lens!

Good luck with the sale.

Phil.

It's actually not too bad, The felt lining on the inside of the metal hood is still pretty thick and holds the hood in place. I think the felt wares down over time and thus the hood slips off easily.

I have some other lenses with a similar hood and those do fall off more easily. I have seen these hoods for sale, even NOS, so you might be able to get one with thicker felt.

Phil.
