Nokton 50mm f1.5 front element

[jaytothezee]

Hello, I've got a problem with my nokton 50mm f1.5 . The front element of the lens got separated and I don't know how to put it back together. I've been googling it all around, but all what I found was couple of how to which were already expired. I would really appreciate your help with this issue, because at the moment I can't afford to send it to service. Thanks

The Nokton 50/1.5 front element is a single element, not cemented; so I can not understand the issue. Did you lose the retaining ring around the front element? If not, get yourself a thin medical type rubber glove and screw it back, and then go directly to a camera service to have it fastened properly. I do not think that they will charge you for a ten second operation.
