Hey everyone,
I'm taking apart a Summicron 50 v4 and am not seeing how to remove the rear elements. The front came out very easily after unscrewing the name ring, which serves as a retaining ring. However, I've looked all around the back and can't see any notches indicative of a retaining ring that would let me further remove the rear elements and the aperture.
Could someone point me in the right direction here? I have a suspicion that maybe the lens block just unscrews from the focusing block (like with some older lenses), but don't want to apply too much force doing that before confirming..
Thanks!
Bo
