Hans Roggen Posted May 24, 2007 Share #42 Posted May 24, 2007 Hans, you said that there was a couple of screws on the screwmount of the lens. Do you mean an English couple (2) or a German couple (3-6)? I have four at 90 degree spacings. Are we really meant to move these??? Hi Carsten, Yes, all four of them. Don't be afraid. Your lens won't fall apart. They'e just there to attach the metal ring to the lens. When you move the metal ring you'll see the other set of four holes. I think there are even three sets of four holes, but i'm not sure. Good luck. Hans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wstotler Posted August 19, 2008 Share #43 Posted August 19, 2008 There are 4 tiny cross-head screws that need to be removed so that you can remove the round metal plate with the L39 screw thread. Beneath the metal plate the screws screw into the plastic body and Voigtlander has thoughtfully provided 3 holes for each screw so that the position of the metal plate can be adjusted. The screws on my lens were screwed into the middle holes and to adjust the metal plate so that the lens is correctly aligned on the M8 I had to position the holes in the metal plate (as near as I could) over the right-hand holes in the plastic body. I then placed the screws in the holes in the metal plate and screwed them home. Pete. Pete, Thanks--my new screwmount CV 21 was *way* off, by a full set of screw holes. (E.g., when screwed into the CV adapter the focus alignment dot was 120 degrees past its mark.) Followed directions and did a 120-degree reverse rotation on the lens mount ring. Lines up perfect. BTW, fixed my CV 15 at the same time. Both align perfectly now. Two differences (just for the record): The CV 15 has 4 screws, the CV 21 has three. Also, the CV 15 had a thin copper shim/gasket (with four holes in it) under the mount ring--the CV 21 had no copper gasket/shim. Thanks! Will Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
