This is the Leitz Macro Elmarit 60mm ROM version, |
|
First, unscrew the six screws from the mount. |
|
Now, the three black ones. |
|
and the two that secure the ROM strip. |
|
First, we have to remove the ROM strip, the screws are out, but it is still attached to the mount by a couple of plastic pivots, I had to puncture it with a pointed tool to the sides to pull it up. |
|
Here you can see one of the pivots. |
|
When the ROM strip is out, we can rotate the black shroud until it doesn't prevent the mount to be lifted. |
|
Turn the bayonet looking for a position to liberate it . |
|
Bayonet is free, we can screw the ROM strip again. |
|
Look for the small ball, and save it in a secure place to avoid problems. Now unscrew the bright slopped cam. |
|
Here it is what I removed. |
|
Now remove the diaphragm ring. |
|
Remove these two screws. |
|
Screws out. |
|
Now we have to remove the internal ring, I needed to turn the focusing ring until the infinity position to have room to work. |
|
The flexible black cover can be removed this way. |
|
Put the brass internal ring and the two screws in its place again.. |
|
And the diaphragm ring too. Here you can see the black shroud removed. |
|
Put the small ball in place with a little bit of special grease. |
|
The ball in place. |
|
Install the Leitax bayonet, this one has the Dandelion chip for Nikon already glued. |
|
Finally, after so much effort, we have the lens ready for our digital cameras. |
