You obviously seem pleased with his work. I also have a Jupiter-9 which needs tweaking. I was wondering how long did it take to get your lens back? Also how did you ship it so that it wouldn't get lost? I am a bit nervous about sending a lens so far. I do like that lens. BTW, I especially like the photo of the Belvedere.
