Trying to take apart the front lens element on my Voightlander AVUS to clean between the elements.
https://www.photo.net/discuss/threads/dial-set-compur-cla.154324/ states that this can be done with "a pin face spanner". However, after looking up the spanner and examining the face of the lens, I cannot see any holes to engage the pins!
However I can see a color difference along the outer edge of the front filter ring on the element. I wonder if this is where the lens will come apart?
It looks as if someone has been trying to take it apart in the past, as the black color is almost worn off the front most ring.
Ideas?
