Hi.I recently dinked the end of my mamiya 65mm lens.The affect is that it is now a hit and miss game screwing in filters and finding purchase on the lens.When filters eventually take to the lens it becomes very tight and difficult to unscrew filters.
Does any know if it's possible to replace this element of lens.
Thanks for all or any help.
Regards
Nick

Follow the directions that should come with the tool. You must work gradually. Do not try to remove the dent in one pass. BTW, the damage will always be visible.

Be real careful with one of those, I scraped the multilayer coating of a lens and turned it into an expensive paperweight.
