I'm taking my first steps into basic lens servicing, concentrating on some older manual prime lenses as they seem to be the best place to start.
I already have:
- good quality adjustable lens spanner / wrench
- decent rubber lens ring removal tools
- lint-free microfibre cloths
- high quality isopropyl alcohol for cleaning jobs
- rubber work mat
To this, I need to add some decent screwdrivers and some basic oil & grease for lubrication jobs.
Could any of you recommend a practical set of sizes for the screwdrivers I'll need (slotted and phillips)? Also, which oils / greases will get me started? I'm not looking to have every eventuality covered at this stage - just a basic selection to get me going. I'd planned on buying from micro-tools...
Finally, are there any other must-haves that I've overlooked in terms of tools and supplies?
Thanks in advance
