Glad to see that others have found this camera! I did use some drops of light oil (removed the lens elements first). I just placed them on the treads at the rear of the mount. (it really didnt do much.)I felt pretty comfortable using heat. (if you do, just be very careful with the torch!) Brass is an excellent heat conductor. The grease melted out, and the lens spun freely. Now to clean and re-lube the threads..
