Hi all,
Anyone know how to get a Summarit apart (LTM)? I've dismantled probably two dozen leica and canon rf lenses over the past few years and the Summarit has me totally flumoxed. Anyone have any wisdom or do I have to put the screws back and ship it off to Essex? I don't wish to admit defeat.
thanks

Thanks, that's helpful. I tried it, but I'm having trouble I guess finding the hole the pin needs to go in. Could it be that it's extremely hard to turn? I don't want to force it.

Okay, I got that. Just took a little muscle and leverage.

Now, how do I get the rear element off? The brass retaining ring only moves a little bit and then locks up. Any ideas?
