Hey Pentaxians,
I bought a cheap (? 250€! ) 50mm F1.2, unfortunately with a lot of fungus inside.
No Problem for me, I thought. I often dissambled and assembled manual pentax lenses but never had this problem:
I never put out the lens barrel. So now I have to re-calibrate and adjust the lens.
Never did this before and I tried so many positions but not get it beack to basic settings.
I thought measuring the distance from top to back would be alright. Otherwise I used a white marker to mark the transitions - i forgot it. I forgot to make fotos too
.
BUT: the lenses are free of fungus now
.
Can someone please help to assemble the lens? Some tips and tricks? are there special positions of tubus/lens barrel too look for.
Pictures would help a lot, if possible.
If I will get it back to genuine settings, I will Dissamble the whole lens again and make fotos of the complete Dissamble/Assemble for all Users and the Dissambly Data Base.
So every tip and trick you will give is a great help for everyone.
If someone will not give these information to everyone, please write me a PM. If you not want to have published your knowledge let me know also, and I will conceal the information to adjust in the Dissambly Data Base.
Great Thanks to all Answers,
Milka
