This is the Summicron 50/2 1-cam lens | |
Here you can see that there is one cam only. First, we have to unscrew the black shroud, I usually turn the lens upside down when the screw is going to fall. |
|
I use the plastic tool to lift the black shroud, so there is no risk to touch the glass with the fingers.. | |
Now we can remove it. | |
Remove the screws of the Leica-R mount. |
|
And lift it, pay attention where the small bearing ball is, many times stays glued to the mount , like in this picture. | |
It is best to put a bit of grease in the hole where the small ball goes. These are old lenses and there is little original grease remaining. | |
Now put the ball in place. | |
And we can install the special Leitax mount for 1-cam lenses. The red dot goes near the center of the lens scale. Use the same screws of the Leica mount. | |
Ready, now we can use Leica 1-cam lenses on our reflex camera. | |
