| THE DREMEL: IF THIS DOESN'T WORK, NOTHING WILL... |
I cannot get
my Pentax 6mm 1.2 c-mount lens to focus on my Panasonic GH2. I am stuck with a fixed focus lens while others have been able to shoot
good stuff with this wide-angle, fast lens I bought for €15,-
I am going to give this lens one last shot and bought a Dremel (mini-drill) that will help me modify my lens even further. I have instructions from people that have been succesful at getting infinity focus with comparable lenses... Either I'm going to shoot some lowlight, wide angle stuff pretty soon or I'll be stuck with a handfull of scrapmetal...

sorry , I don't get the point...
ReplyDeletecould you make another view of this modification??
I haven't started yet! The picture above is after I had someone else machine the barrel. He basically ground down the rear barrel of the lens but it didn't have the desired effect.
ReplyDeleteYet another person showed me what I should try next. (red and blue text on photo)
After I'm done, I will show you if it worked and, if so, how you can do it.
please do show us, thanks

ReplyDeleteDear Mr. Wolf, thank you for the illustration. However the red and blue lettering in your description is hard to read.
ReplyDeleteThe blue lettering against the black background makes the measurements unreadable. If you can, please list those measurements. thank you
You can click on the image and it will open up in a legible size!
DeleteThank you Mr. Wolf. Did you also have to modify the adapter? E
