Dust in CZ 50mm17

are you 1 owner? do you know how they were used?
i would advise not to clean your lenses if it isn`t absolutely neccessary - there always is a risk the position of the glasses will be changed. before an attemp of cleaning consider if quality of dirty lenses is so poor that it`s better to risk a serious demage.
 
So you can't leave it to a professional to do it, or send it to Zeiss?
There is an insane amount of dust, more than any I seen.
 
If you think the dust is causing poor image quality (insane amount indeed), send an email to Zeiss, they are extremely responsive (of course, it may be less expensive to buy a new lens than to ship the lens to Zeiss and have it serviced).
