mamiya TLR 105mm f/3.5

[FM2N]

Hello All,
I am wondering if the viewing lens on my 105mm twin lens can be switched, changed with the taking lens below it? The viewing lens is a little cleaner than the taking lens. They look to be identical and it seems like it would work.
has anyone tried it.
thanks
Arthur

I think both lenses are identical. So, yes, I should be possible to switch front parts.

Anyway, it is a reversible operation and you can easily go back to the original fitting if you don't notice any improvement.

take care.

I have read in http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&so...istory&usg=AFQjCNHwmoxv5VVRBnRifUzi6g-xHxRjpg

that if attempting this it is better to swop all (4) elements

regards,

Ian
