Hi there,
Need help. I have just purchased a Meyer Optik Gorlitz Trioplan 100mm f2.8 red V (M42) from eBay.
The aperture arrow on the barrel does not align to its respective values.
I decided to take the lens apart and fix it however I am stuck at the aperture barrel section and unable proceed further. I have taken some pictures of it.
Aperture placeholder A : I am unable to remove the retaining screw as the screw head is on the other side. Therefore i cannot remove the Aperture placeholder A.
Aperture placeholder B : I have removed the screw but unable to unscrew/pull the barrel apart.
Does anyone knows how to open this up?

Thanks !

Welcome to the forum Bernard! Your pictures and your link do not show because this is your first post. I think that if you answer this message you should be able to go back to your original message and edit it so that the items will show.

Much better. The first post no pictures/link policy measure is to prevent spam on the forum. Not to make life hard for newcomers. I had the exact same experience a while ago Very Happy

I have the same issue with a Primoplan 75mm. Was hoping to get an answer here.. maybe I'll post in the general 'Manual Focus Lenses' board.
