Dude_ger Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hi guys, after doing some tests with adapters i am now on 35mm as the widest (GH5) with the Schneider Kreuznach Cinelux. But i got the one with the lips on the front, and also the focus knob. With direct light, you can see these lips vignetting or shining, even with black tape on them. So the lock knob is not important, and maybe i can shorten the focus knob a bit (when i got money for a single focus this shouldn t be a problem), and i need to cut these lips. My first thoght was to cover the lens with plastic and just use a hacksaw, but i want it more accurate, so i thought of laser cutting. But for the heat i have to remove the lenses. Anybody did this before? Once i read about how difficult it will be to put everything back together... With other anamorphics i had no problems doing this, but i am affraid of this focus mechanism Thanks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 To be safe, I think you can take out front lens then cut lips with saw, not so difficult. I disassembled other new type lens, but I think it is similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
