These instructions are here thanks to our client and friend Vaughn, who send us his Contax Tessar 45/2.8 to make it work on Pentax cameras. | |
This is the Carl Zeiss Tessar 45/2.8 MM type. |
|
First, unscrew the rear mount, please note the 22 number of green color, this shows it is a MM type lens. |
|
This is the aperture lever. |
|
We have to "open" the bayonet like a door around this lever. |
|
Bayonet out. |
|
Now look at the small bearing ball. |
|
Let's put a bit of grease on it. |
|
Install the new Leitax mount, the red dot goes near the lens scale center. |
|
And screw it. |
|
Ready, we can use this excellent lens on Pentax cameras. Of course, it will focus to infinity. |
|
It is really thin, a real pancake lens from Zeiss. |
|
This bayonet will be made upon request, please write to info@leitax.com | |
