Yeppers -- the 24mm it is not real easy to see the green but it definitly
isn't pink or amber -- more blue ish. Now if I can find a way to 'vacum'
the lint out (it is sitting between the aperature blade and the last
element -- think a vacum cleaner would create enough suction without
damageing the lens ???)

Sometimes the green can be *very* hard to see. I have a 50/1.4 I bought
new,
marked MC, that I've almost managed to convince myself I see green in.
Almost. All of my other MC lenses the green isnt too hard to see,
though.
