Thank you for the helpful video. Note the lenses are three. The first element after opening have two parts with some kind of spacer between. I was just waiting the moment with the aperture tear down as that's where my problem is, but... Anyway your video gives me courage to continue :-). By the way mine is branded Prinzgalaxy but look exactly the same. Missing only the tripod mount collar.

Due , Due, if you are going shoot a video PLEASE Blow your nose first and wash your hands then shoot a video

Works great with Vivitar 283 flash guns allowing the flash gun to be used off camera and isolating the camera from any high voltage that these old flash units can produce which can damage digital cameras.

Black wire with one end connected is the antenna

thanks for the video, those triggers can works with an optical triggers to works with the pop up flash of a point and shoot? thanks you

How to assemble the rear lens unit correctly? there is one straight-concave lens and one straight-convex lens. Which side should I put towards the front lens

When screwing the pieces back together, set one on top of the other and turn gently. Do not for them together. It may take a bit of turning but they will eventually catch and thread.

Have you tested the receiver with a vintage flash that usually have high voltage hot shoe ?

there's condensation in between both the two peices of glass of the rear extended section is there a way you know of to separate them , there seems to be threads in the cylinder but there's no access as the length of the tube makes it hard to get your fingers or any tools in it was used by and then gifted to me by my grandad so im not really in a position to buy another but if there's a way to repair it for sentimental value i would, i really appreciate your video though as i didn't even know what could unscrew to begin checking out the problem, i was unscrewing the glass at the top, it seems that is how it was manufactured by screwing it in and then the plate with the focal length and brand name but my grandad has screwed into the metal to unscrew it it seems most likely for cleaning or aligning, maybe he already knew it was fogged up

Mine came with APKINA branding and works flawlessly

Wow! Exactly what am experiencing now with mine. Am here learning the solution, thanks you.

They really work I'm just a newbie in this industry and thank you for this video🎉

“Semeye right” its semi right

el que tiene 4 canales, se puede usar con dos flashes al mimo tiempo?

Genius! I fixed up a Helios 44M-4 58mm and Carl Zeiss Jenazoom 35-200mm with this trick, and both are currently working fine on my Canon EOS 4000D - yep, old full frame lenses do look good on those APS-C sensors as long as you can deal with the crop!

using all that, how can you determine magnification?

Starts at 12:30

Great video, thanks so much

How can we determine the magnification power?

ON my Fujinon 200mm EBC lens, I laid down a piece of waxed paper, coated the pin with Superglue and stood the lens which pressed the pin and left the lens overnight on the waxed paper. In the morning, I picked up the lens which was not stuck to even the waxed paper, cleaned off any residual Superglue and it's worked fine for 2 years.

It work with all flash ?

Welcome, I have subscribed you, one of my good friend from Switzerland Stefan told you about your vedio clips special M 42 how to remove pin from lens, I saw it fully, will try if you are at Facebook send me the link

Hi, I recently bought a Pentax ME and it has a very similar problem. The LED always lights up on OVER, no matter which ASA or aperture I select, it always indicates OVER. And when I turn the dial, there are no clicks on the compensation stops. Is it the same problem? The camera was kept unused for a long time, it is not known if any maintenance was done in the past, maybe the display was mounted wrong. Could it be that my problem is also just the display assembly? I don't have tools to dismantle it, the most I could do was remove the part that has the rewind lever, the second part with the slits on the edge I can't take it off and I'm afraid of ruining it.

I am real late to the party but I have some late advice. Lol... Paint the shiny surface areas that the paint has rubbed off black. Add new light seals if they are old. Then test again. Great camera. Those ME's are tough little machines ;)

I found a ME Super for $70 but it does need a lens. So small and light might make a great street shooter.

Time west no talk to flesh flesh recycling time test

Hi. I have pentor 400mm. Great video. Now i know how to clean mold from the first lens. the lens got a second life. :)

Hi there, Hope you are well. I have a question. If you do not have the auto aperature option anymore on the m42 lens (because either you have an adapter which blocking this option, or you have different system in your camera body to conrol the auto aperature), you will focus on the biggest apperature, and when you done, you settle the right f stop, or you focus on smaller aperature like f11? In this case isn't the view in the finder too dark? What is the common (esyest) practice in this case? Rgds: Tamas

In the USA the M42 mount is most commonly found in the tens of thousands of Pentax screw-mount cameras and lens that military personnel bought and/or sent home during the era of the war in Vietnam. While the mount was first used in popular German cameras sold by Contax and Praktica, in the USA a lens described as having a Pentax Screw Mount can also be described as having the M42 mount - the terms here are synonymous.

does it work for fuji film?

Can you switch the English auto-captions on please?

The extra black wire is actually the antenna

I have this and haven’t used it in a long time...trigger won’t work without the cable now. I’m assuming the battery is gone and seems like it can’t be replaced.

Thank you, this really helped! I did however remove the entire thing :D

Personally I just take the old crap out with a toothpick and some ISO wipes. Then get this... I don't even replace them after!?! Hahahaha. Got this tip from a repair shop that has serviced thousands of cameras in Canada. Nice clean camera, no gunk. While we're at it, I used to live in Amsterdam; how is the old Grey Area Coffeeshop doing? The Cafe Emmelot?

I have the Tasman variant of this lens, thank you :)

Hi, its world with a Canon TTL flash. The TTL mode work, or only on manual mode?

ITS A GRUB SCREW YA CLOWN !!!! 🤡

FINALLY.... I'VE FOUND A CURE FOR INSOMNIA !!!! 😴😴😴😴

Its fascination how easily the front can just be screwed off. So simple.

Does it work on cannon 200d?

My father pulled an old Quantaray lens out of the basement, and it seems to have some, well. *issues* and needs a good cleaning. This lens was likely purchased in the 80s, but it's pretty much identical to the one you have here. I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting to find a "How to" on disassembling it but here we are!

Extra wire is for more wifi signal...,mistery solved in 2020 :))

For ur next video please clean ur nose and not to make voice of ur noise anymore.thats really disgusting 😒 😑

This could have been resolved in minutes. I had the same issue while replacing the asa dial. I accidentally closed the door with the winding mechanism removed. I simply got a very thin screwdriver and pushed down the top pin of the hinge (it's spring loaded and very easy to access) and removed the door from that end. From the initial problem to resembling the winding mechanism to re-attaching the door, took less than 5 minutes.

Is MFI certified

u suck my friend

Explained really well.. I was searching for it . Hats off to u

This is the answer to Nikon's FA which you Couldn't buy the lens for what you paid for the entire Pentax w/lense, and it works nearly as well. Asahi is top notch equipment. The light seals are available online; ebay, etc... Just a pain to remove the jury rig someone left you.

Glad that so many watchers also had suggestions on opening the back compartment of the ME. I've bought one with a missing select wheel on the right side, and even found a replacement for it, but they are difficult to figure how all that comes apart. Hoping you had luck getting your Pentax back in working order for shooting. These are great cameras if you have a functional body that isn't throwing a tantrum, as it needs repairs. Thank you for your video. Best wishes.
