Old Thambar f=9 cm 1:2,2 found -> cleaning?
stevemark posted a topic in Leica Collectors & Historica
Hello to everybody I'm new at the leica forum - up to now my only practical experience with Leicas was my mothers "Leica III", equipped with a simple Elmar 3.5/ 50mm. I did use it at the age of 15 in school ... to take pictures of the girls . - That's how i came into photography. At the age of 17 i changed to Minolta (Leitz was simply too expensive for me), and i never used the Leica III any more. Some days ago, however, i found a Thambar 9 cm 1:2,2 at a local "garage sale". When i saw it, i thought it might be nice as a portrait lens, even though there was some fungus inside. Otherwise the glass was without any damage. I decided to buy it, since it was just about 100$. Now my question: Does anyone here know how to dismantle / clean the Thambar? Before starting the work, i'd like to collect as much information as possible ... Thanks for any help, drawings (eg lens cross-section) and suggestions. Stephan
