Hi,
I'm trying to dismantle this lens for cleaning. Repair book says to remove rear retaining ring first but the photos are not clear. I can see three rings at the rear (inner, middle and outer). Can anybody help me out as to which one to remove first?
Here is a photo of the rear. You can see what looked like a outer ring which is thick and flat with 2 holes diametrically opposite each other, a thimmer ring with 2 notches just inside the first one, and another thin ring with 2 notches adjacent to the rear glass element.[/ATTACH]
