Thanks cyclone3d

Your research is appreciated, and I have purchased a tube to try.
I'm presently using white lithium grease, but want a little less resistance.

Cheers

Hi Jools, Hinman and RioRico

I have all 3 versions of this little lens, so have found these to work...


I-50-2 for M42. push on hood = 37mm dia. filter size = 35.5mm

A step-up ring of 35.5mm-49mm allows use of your choice of 49mm hood.


I-50 for M39 SLR. push on hood = 36mm dia. filter size = 33mm

A step-up ring of 33mm-43mm then another ring 43mm-49mm.


I-50 for M39-L39 rangefinder as per M39 SLR, but this lens is not useful on DSLR, but OK on NEX.


It is a bit tricky to see the aperture settings with the rings fitted and if you touch the hood whilst focusing, the settings alter, but that's how it is.

If you prefer, genuine push on hoods and caps are still available from alex-photo and others in Ukraine on ebay.

Cheers

Geoff

Eneloop Batteries for Pentax K-x (Australian Prices)

That's a complicated question.

I have been using a Camplus Intercept charger for about 2 years, which is compact sized, reasonably priced and suits my needs, having the choice of mains and car charger.

If you follow the link on the site to The Docs' Charger and Battery Reviews, that may help you find your answer.

I have a similar problem with all of my Sigma lenses, and as a work-around, I cut a 25mmx10mm slice from a thin blade from an old set of feeler gauges.

I insert this blade between the TC and lens to disengage the AF shafts.

It looks a bit untidy but the MF is friction free.

Question concerning yellowing Takumar
Posted By geoffox23

I had success with a UV flashlight SKU 01300 from Dealextreme.com.

I made up a tube to mount it to the screw side of the lens and laid a layer of aluminium foil inside the lenscap.

On a constant feed of rechargable AAA batteries, it took about 4 days to clear the yellowing.

Cheers
