Hi! I recently bought an old C220 with two lenses - the 65mm f/3.5 and the 180mm f/4.5. Both are in need of a cleaning operation, the 65mm more so. I can easily unscrew the front and rear group assemblies, but what I need is to disassemble the front group itself, to reach the inside of the frontal element. So far no luck - the inner ring (#1) has no cutouts to fit the spanner to unscrew, and seems to narrow for a friction unscrewing with a rubber stopper. On the outside there is a line (#2) that suggests that it could be unscrewed on the outside, but I've tried it and no luck. Here is a picture, in case my english isn't very clear (forgive that): Here is the image link, I've also attached it: http://i45.tinypic.com/rm8p75.jpg Any ideas? Thank you very much! |
