I needed to get a couple lenses adjusted by DAG, and that wasn't too bad.
My CV 28/1.9 could not be adjusted, so I sold it to someone who can use it

 I  replaced it with the new Leica 28 asph, smaller, lighter, beautiful
lens.  Yummy.  I'm so happy the CV wasn't good enough, now that I have the
Leica.
