Newbie here and I just discovered this site - neat stuff from some really knowledgable people. I hope someone can help me find a part for an old lens. I have a Pentax K 135mm, f2.5 lens with a broken aperture pin. This pin fits into a fork-like lever that, when activated, closes down the aperture when the shutter fires. The pin cracked off at the base and now the aperture is inoperative. The hole the pin used to fit into is deformed and I think I will need to replace the whole part with an intact pin. Does anyone know where I can find such a part? Anyone with a junker lens willing to sell the part.
This lens is used but still worth fixing. Thanks in advance and Happy New Year to you all.

I'm afraid you'll just have to keep your eyes out for a damaged lens to get the part from. Watch eBay and be patient, one may come along.... |
