Scratched lens problem solved at DVinfo.net

Well, I reported a few weeks ago my lens was scratched and I have had my A1 about a month. I sent it back to the retailer and they came through! They shipped me a brand new one, no questions asked. They are great! It isn't a sponsor here, so I will not list the name..but all is well in A1 land again! Just remember this though, if you use a Letus 35mm adapter, make sure you install a UV filter or clear lens protector with double threads so you do not damage the lens taking the letus off or installing it. With the double threaded filter, you will have protection. J

This sounds like the front element issue with the XLH1 and some Wide Angle adapters.
