Hi to all.

I have done this conversion recently - all good, if not perfect in this case.

The lens is mine and this conversion is FULLY REVERSIBLE and absolutely safe.

The aperture clicks at every number like should be, infinity is spot on and -- all is centered very well.

I did not use my plastic material and left the rear part as is.

There is nothing that has been done to the lens .. the lens is untouched including previous infinity settings.

Turning the lens into the previous FD version takes about 15 - 20 minuntes.

The left side of the first picture shows all parts necessarily put away.
