Introduction |
I like experimenting with old manual SLR lenses on my mirrorless Sony digital camera. | | Unfortunately, they sometimes have problems. | | One classic long focus German lens came without the rubber grip on the aperture ring. | | This is a common failure, often due to ageing of the rubber.. | | Searching for replacements I drew a blank. | | There are plenty out there, but they are sold on the basis of what lens they fit, and no sizes are given. | | You can have one made to measure, but that is quite costly. | | However, I found that I could manufacture a replacement for less than £4.00. | | This technique could be used for grips on any round object. |
