Hello, is there a way to replace the glass the cover the lens? I Have 2 Ricoh Theta, one the glass is broken and other has a scratch that shows in every image… so I want to replace the scratched glass with the good one of the other camera

Hello, Where can I find the set of lenses or just the replacement glass?

I am happy if you have a return.

Having same Issue as Willian Machado, please respond to our questions :) Is there a way to replace a scratched/ broken covering glass if we have two Theta`s ? We can make one full working one by using the two undamaged sides - theorethically. Does it work ?

I also have same issue… Broke part of my glass, will like to find out if its possible to replace just one part of it….

Continent Kofi - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0

I have one with a shattered lens and took it appart to check…. glass seems to be permanently fixed to optical block with very strong epoxi resin and doesn’t seem to be replaceable even if you manage to clean up, the problem is how to remove a good lens for transplant, without breaking it.

Bravo...!!! - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0
