Next month I will be upgrading my EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM lens to the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens, I would like to have routine maintenance done on the old lens, cleaning and so on. I have never sent a lens in and was wondering if there is anything special to do? I tried to figure it out on the maintenance page for the lens but they make it a nightmare to figure out how to do anything. Also I may sell this lens to try to get another lens (Canon EF-M 32mm f/1.4 STM Lens as I have never had a prime lens and shoot a lot of landscape and already have the 11-22 lens) (Camera is a eos M50 Mark I) and I would like to know how to figure out I believe it is called shutter count on the lens as I see that as a common question to please selling camera lenses. I hope I am asking these questions properly, I am still kinda new and have never had any of my lenses in for maintenance before. Thank you for any help given.

There is no shutter count for lenses. Only cameras can record the shutter count.
