I don't know where you can purchase a lens. My suggestion would be to email Guard Dog Security flashlight manufacturing and tell them what happened and ask if they have a free lens replacement program. Don't offer to purchase the replacement lens in that first email as you will want to see what they are willing to offer in the way of customer service free replacement before you offer to "buy" a replacement lens. Best wishes to you in your endeavors!

Have you tried the manufacturer? That's where I'd start. Also you can try your local hardware store, buy the material and cut your own lenses.

Mr. Stargazer,Carefully read the terms BEFORE you purchase. I have a Nikon D7100; I purchased a lens with the camera. My lens mount broke. They covered it. I had to send in the lens, and it was repaired and returned to me a no cost other than mailing the lens. However, I've read some reviews that claim the policy will not cover accidental breakage. This was not true in my case; they did cover it. I just cautioning you to be aware of all the terms before you push the buy button. I rated my service 4 of 5 stars.

I have one and have no trouble with it. Why would this mirror be any different or more fragile than any other cam mirror? Don't worry too much about it. When changing lens, as usual, just remember to point the open-end down so no dust settles on mirror or sensor. It's not fragile unless you drop it. Even if it were unusually fragile, when encased in adapter housing, what could compromise it? That's what I think. If you are concerned about its fragility, then obviously you need not be warned about touching mirror with fingers or objects when changing lenses.

the only think i know is to send talk to company and send it to them. it is worth it, it comes back fixed and sharp, i have never broken one myself. But yeah, if you should be able to send it to the company

Directly from the manufacturer if you are looking to pay for it. I received mine broken. I contacted the seller and received the replacement directly from the manufacturer (at seller's request). Good luck,

This is a new lense I got. As far as the warranty I don't have an answer for that. My lense has been working perfect.

I don't know where you can get new shades, but I would be interested if anyone does. The plastic ones that come with it are very flimsy and don't filter the light very well.

We bought a couple of these and they came in shattered. We couldn't get a new one because this model is discontinued. We've tried buying from a number of places and they say allow "x# of weeks for shipping" but we end up getting a note from the seller saying it's discontinued. BUT if you're successful in getting one, would love to know!

Mine was in perfect condition. A new lense should never have any scratches on the glass!,

Truthfully there is no way to know. If I ordered a $2,000 lens and the package was even slightly bent, I'd ask for a replacement. When spending that much money on a lens, it has to be absolutely perfect!

I'm not sure. You should call the manufacture. Here is the Vivitar support hotline 1-800-592-9541. They should be able to help you. I called them when I purchased my exact lens. They were able to clear up all my questions. The lens is amazing quality for the price. The only bad thing about this lens is it makes my DSLR a little top heavy. So you really should have a tripod if your going to use this lens for long periods of time. Hope that helps.
