why did you need to dissasemble this lens. this lens looks similar to my 55mm lens which no longer focuses and the camera doesn’t recognize the lense anymore.

darren clyde - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0

I need to know maddly, how can I have a reposition of the 6 spring there are on the first lense.

Is there any way?

If not, can you tell me specificcaly the size and the strength?

Pau Roqué Robert - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0

To remove the flat cables theres a little trigger (im my case in grey) that opens up inversely to the cable that let you take the cables out, I pushed mines and they´re working but don´t do it like I did, it can ruin your lens, mine is now up and running.

I did it to clean the lens but most of the dust is in the front glass witch you have to rip the little plastic that is fixing it in place, de dual lens front glass is not supposed to be open but thats the way!

This guide is great, just try to remember where all the screw came of and dived them into jars, the black ones are all the same!

good luck to everyone!
