Weird Contax G Lens Problem

amellice · May 14, 2018

It seems that these lenses got disassembled but were put back in a wrong way, the print on the aperture ring doesn't match the actual lens opening. Can this be fixed?

They are in perfect alignment! You are looking at them in the uncoupled state. When they are mounted on the body, the lock ring puts them in the correct position.

Like mentioned above, when the lens is mounted on the body, at app ring will be in the correct place. try it and let us know

@destroya @plummerl you guys are right, it did fix itself when I got it mounted on the camera. Thank you so much

Another question, the 90mm lens aperture ring doesn't click, is that normal? It seems to operate fine

It should behave the same as for other lens, i.e. it should not go freely between the stops.

thanks @iakustov i think mine doesn't click. It acts okay but it doesn't click between stops
