Hi to all..

I do not show taking lenses in bits very often.. But you must see this:

This Angenieux 70-210 has been taken in a bits..

Two last steps from this set (and the most difficult Smile

) are missing here but they're not necessary to be seen..

The last TWO PICTURES where the aperture is in bits -- this is not the right way how to service the aperture!!! -- please, do not follow the last two pics..

It;s amazing piece of glass but mechanically -- wow - like a cheap toy ..

but looking through optics is fantastic opportunity.

I bought a cheap Tamron 103a 80-200 zoom to practice on it, well you just made me change my mind Crying or Very sad

(just kidding)

zoom seems to be more complicated but it's not..

the prime lens may be more difficult ..

one good thing on zoom is that in most cases do not have helicoid Smile

...

this is lens is under total surgery and also is going to be converted to EF mount soon ...

I have mastered aperture mechanism and only the mount needs to be finished.
