Help with Super Takumar 35mm f/2 First model (67mm filter size) disassembly

ortopolis · 09:46 AM

I bought a copy of this lens and I need to clean it but I can not even begin to open it, because neither the front nor the back I see the way.
Can any of you come up with any idea or have you took apart this lens? , Any clue will help me a lot. Thanks in advance

I think most Takumars are taken apart the same way. You may need to remove the front filter ring.

Thanks for the answers. The usual order I know, but in this lens, after removing the filter ring and the first lens that simply fits into the gap, the second lens appears. There are no screws or anything like that and I suspect that this second lens will have to be unscrewed although it has been impossible until now. any ideas?

I know that this is a long shot, but have you gotten anywhere in repairing this lens? I also need to take it apart, but my copy has a very wobbly front barrel.

Hello friends,

I am working on the Supersize 35/2 and wondering if the Nose Unscrews. Based on other similar takumar, I see many unthread, this one is either stubborn or I am missing something. I am at the exact same steps as the photos above. Thankyou in advance! The lens on my bench thanks you and so do I!

Good news team Takumar! I was able to unscrew the nose all in one piece. You do not need to take off the namering, you just unscrew the hole front optic set by hand. Just be gentle and consistent!

Good luck!

Ben
