Yes ..

we have done this lens before (to Rolf)

Now, I have done this one in slightly different way but the aperture mechanism is the most difficult part of the conversion...

The lens is not mine but my copy is going to be done soon Wink it's a 'wow' lens and --- great ..

uuuuaahh! I am happy!!! I am free now Wink

note: AF-EMF adapter is not my cup of tea but that's customer choice.

Yes, great lens.

Stan, you said you converted it "in a slightly different way". Would you pls so kind and tell me (and others of course) the differences ?

Wink

I am using a different parts and different screws i.e. those made form brass you can see on the mount - they have BA thread which is different from the metric system and also the spacer is thicker..

The ipmrovement is more in material .
