Focus ring jammed
Hi,
I picked up a 2nd hand Soligor tele lens recently. The focusing ring seems completely jammed. Unmovable. The glass is clean and the aperture stops down properly so it's worth my spending a little time fixing it. Anyone point to any tips or a web-site with instructions for cleaning, lubing and then reassembling a lens of this type - it's a 135mm short-ish tele lens? I thought for a few seconds that it might even be a fixed focus lens (it's jammed so solid) but the lens seems to be focused at a distance that wouldn't make sense as a hyperfocal length at any aperture. Thanks, Matt |
