This is the Leitz Super Angulon 21/4. Our client and friend Eric, took pictures of the whole process to share them with us. |
|
You can see the three cams. |
|
Here we have the replacement bayonet. |
|
First, unscrew the black shroud. |
|
Now lift this side of the shroud. Help yourself with the plastic tool. |
|
This way, it can be removed |
|
Unscrew the bayonet, remove it and search for the small ball. |
|
This time, it remains at its place. |
|
And save it, we will need it later. |
|
Now, unscrew the two cams, please take a picture to remember later the place of each one. |
|
Here you can see the cams and their own spacers, please save them separately. Look at the cam on the right, it has the third cam machined on it. |
|
Replace the small bearing ball, please put first a bit of special grease in the spring hole where the ball goes, and some grease on the ball too. |
|
Install the Leica-Pentax or the Leica-Nikon bayonet, the red dot in front the scale center for Pentax, and slightly to the right for Nikon. |
|
And screw it, please tight the screws in cross pattern . |
|
Now we can use the Super Angulon on Pentax and Nikon cameras. I would like to thank again Eric for his help. He is manager at Hunt's Photo, Manchester, NH location |
