I figured FBS was far-right despite not reading German, simply from some keywords, the illustrations, and the web design. Interestingly they're presented neutrally ("a pressure group") in the linked Reuters article. It took s

I let a repairman service a 105/2.5 that didn't focus to infinity, as well as a 35/1.4 with slow aperture blades, but sadly he suffered a stroke and had to stop working :(
