Hello Folks!
I just picked up a Carl Zeiss Jena DDR MC Flektogon 20mm f/2.8 in MD mount.
I was hoping it'd be a M42 mount but just couldn't resist the price of $100 USD. Now I need suggestions as to what I should do with it ! I'm a bit excited since this will be an equivalent 32mm on my Canon EOS 550D...
The original owner did not know much about it (other than the fact that they go for a pretty sum on eBay). Optics are in excellent condition. Minimal dust. No fungus or oil on the aperture blades. Only problem is that it is in MD mount and the aperture ring does not click (it opens/closes the blades but moves freely with no resistance).
Should I go for a Fotodiox MD to EOS adapter? I really want to avoid using additional glass to achieve infinity focus. What other options do I have?
Here are some pictures of the lens.
Many thanks,

Bad news is you can't put it on an EOS and get infinity, so it will need to be converted again. _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |

That's what I originally thought. I was puzzled when I saw it in MD mount. Perhaps this is the reason why there are issues with the aperture ring. Can any of you provide me with direction as to how I can get this back to m42 screw mount? _________________ DSLR: Canon EOS 550D ◇ 18.0 MP ◇ Full HD 1080p Video ◇ Neewer Battery Grip ◇ Opteka Professional Wrist Grip Strap

I had this same problem once It might be tight to unscrew, if so pliers come in useful. Congrats on getting a VERY cheap Flek! _________________ Graham - Moderator

Or you might leave it out. Some people who use legacy lenses to shoot video get their lenses "de-clicked" which means you can do a smooth change of exposure while shooting video. It doesn't affect functionality, it just means you can't precisely change your aperture by 1 stop just by feeling the clicks. |

I tried unscrewing it counterclockwise and it was VERY tight. I hope it wasn't glued in place by the previous owner.
I will try getting my hands on some pliers tonight ! _________________ DSLR: Canon EOS 550D ◇ 18.0 MP ◇ Full HD 1080p Video ◇ Neewer Battery Grip ◇ Opteka Professional Wrist Grip Strap

It may have been de-clicked for cinema use. However, there is some clicking going on at f/11, f/16, and f/22. That being said, I don't think the apertures fully close at f/22 or fully open at f/2.8. Is there some kind of adjustment that needs to take place? _________________ DSLR: Canon EOS 550D ◇ 18.0 MP ◇ Full HD 1080p Video ◇ Neewer Battery Grip ◇ Opteka Professional Wrist Grip Strap

Hello folks,
I got some good news/bad news.
I successfully removed the MD mount. It looks like it was a screw mount. However, the threading appears to be too small for my m42 adapter. In other words, the lens goes right into my m42 adapter (but does not screw in whatsoever). I feel as if the actual m42 screw thread mount was removed (and/or made smaller) to compensate for the MD plate (MD plate screws in but the m42 adapter, does not).
On a side note, after removing the MD plate, it appears to have been de-clicked. No more of that strange clicking noise. Also, there is no evidence of an aperture pin. Auto gets it wide open while Manual lets me choose aperture without any clicks.
Any thoughts as to what I should do now?

Here's what I suggest, as a possible solution. On ebay you can buy M39-M42 adapter rings for a couple of bucks. Get one of those and try to fit it on the back. You will probably have to do a bit of filing of the inside of the adapter to ring and it will take a bit of trial and error, but with some patience you should be able to restore it so it again has an M42 thread on the back. _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |

I think that this lens deserves a try in this direction: considering how little you paid it, chances are that after repair you'll end up with an excellent lens in perfect condition, and you'll still have made a good deal. _________________ C&C and editing of my pics are always welcome

This suggestion worked! Thank you very much for the advice!
The fix was easier than I thought. I went to my friends house and we found a M39-M42 adapter ring. It screwed on perfectly and adapted just fine to my m42 adapter. No filling etc. necessary.
I don't think I am going to bother doing a CLA on this lens. Clean optics suggest they went ahead and cleaned everything when they did the modification. On a side note, are the aperture blades supposed to be a bit visible @ f/2.8? (I understand this may be the case since it is a wide angle lens).
Attached are some pictures for viewing pleasure (this is with the M39-M42 adapter ring on):
I will take the lens for a spin and post pictures soon.

Great, pleased it was a simple fix! I have loads of lenses that you can still see the blades when fully open, so I don't think it's an issue, but someone with a Flek 20 can confirm. _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |
