I am trying to clean up the lens. Fungus is found underneath the 2 front element. I am able to remove the 1st element but not the 2nd element. Please advise on how to remove it or clean it. Many Thanks, Jackey |

You might also try Mark Dapoz's website: http://olympus.dementia.org/Hardware/ ....and contact him. Not sure if his email address is current: [email protected] I still have a PDF file for that lens (parts diagram) but it's a bit too large to send via email as I have dial-up modem. I have a smaller document on the f1.8 lens; if desired send me an email: turnergande at earthlink dot net |

Dear Turnergande, I tried Mark Dapoz's Website regarding 50mm f1.8. It seems to me the 50mm F1.4 is different from F.18. It said "I first removed the front ring CE168900 with a home made key (see details below). I removed the three screws PUK1.4x4SN, and then removed the front frame assembly". After removing the front ring, I could not find the three screws. Best Regards, Jackey Wong |

Jackey, Take a close look at the 50mm f1.4 parts file (pdf) I sent you. If that does not help maybe another forum member can offer some suggestions on disassembly of that Zuiko OM f1.4 lens (front lens elements). |
