I have started collecting specimens of the gear I learned on in the 50's. I haven't managed to find the first two yet, a Voigtlander Bessa II and a Voigtlander Vito IIa but have No3 a Paxette in absolutely immaculate condition, looks like new, straight out of the box. It has the extinction meter, and No 4, a Super Paxette with the rangefinder and 2 lenses. There's a Cassarit 45mm F2.8 and a Kreuznach-E-Telenar 135mm F5.6 which unfortunately has a spot of mould inside the front element. I could use some advice on how to get inside the lens to clean it out without damaging it! Where do I start?. |

I just happen to have one of those lenses (a Steinheil München Cassarit 45mm) on my Super Paxette. I lubricated the helicoid on this several years ago. I could take a look at it later, though it sounds like you need help with the 135 instead. |
