I have a Canon AE1 with a broken eyepiece glass. I was cleaning it, and it broke, now it kind of shakes around the space where it is supposed to be. I want to know how to open, or replace this glass piece. Somebody please help.
Its there, but broken, and jiggly.
Thanks for the help in advance. |

Hi, Arsen.
Did you actually crack the glass, or did it just pop out of its frame? Were you cleaning it?

Hello,
The adhesive that holds the lens in the eyepiece has failed.The actual lens is approx 6mm thick,you need a hammer to break it!To repair you must remove the camera top and then the finder frame.The lens can then be epoxied back.Problem is you need a pin wrench to remove winder retainer and 00 and 000 +head screwdrivers.If you wish,I can tell you how to make pin wrench and adviseif you contact me, Glenn |
