Steinheil Culminar 85mm 2.8 (04) - a photo on Flickriver

            Steinheil München Culminar 1:2.8 f=85mm .
German LTM (M39) Lens.
Production year not exactly known but probably late 1940's and/or early 1950's.


One of the lesser known lenses with LTM (Leica Thread Mount) (M39 thread).
I bought this lens on a recent Photographica Fair here in The Netherlands.

It was cheap and did fit surprisingly well to my Canon 7.

Cleaning the Rangefinder Helicoid from the old and hardened grease.
A tedious job but is has to be done !

WARNING : 
This image is intended as a reference for the more experienced camera service man. If you have no experience in camera repair please do yourself a favor and send your lens to a professional service shop. It would be a pity to lose a vintage lens in a failed repair attempt !
