Hello there,

I recently bought my dreamie lens, but unfortunately with some dirties inside. I read some guides how to disassembly, but Im stuck on one point.

I put down the name ring, then next ring holding the 1st glass, all shown in picture.

I need to put down the 2nd glass to get inside the lens to clean the 3rd one.
All I see now are two possible rings to unscrew(marked with red color on picture), as well also 6 small screws behind the glass(marked with yellow).

Could you be so kind and give me advice what to do next? if to try the screws or any of the two rings?

Sorry for my not so proper technical knowledge, but this is my first time Im trying to clean the lens.

Thanks in advance
Dzungi

Many moons ago I wrote an article on your lens model and it is still here under "Articles" .. "Lenses".
It covers much more than you actually want for your current task but you only need to follow the stripdown procedure as far as is necessary. From your picture it looks tome as though you will be addressing relatively mild fungus which should hopefiully remover fairly easily with Windex.
