  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

WTB ANY K35 LENSES ANY CONDITION

I have two 18mms the 2.8 and the 1.6. 1.6 has a small coating mark on the front element, 2.8 has a bunch of coating marks on the rear. 1.6 PL 1.8 bncr.

I am sorry for your misfortune Tony! This is truly my greatest fear with my set of K35s, and why I am hesitant to rent them outright. Perhaps this could be an opportunity for others to make mention of additional K35 lenses available, and as I have read on here before, even retired/damaged lenses that could at the very least be used for parts.... Not to long ago I met a lens tech who had a particular fondness for the K35s and at one point even mentioned having some of his glass re-coated to match the original K35 specs...

Hope all works out for you!!!

Tony, sorry to hear about your 55mm K35. How different are the back elements from the old Canon FD 55mm L or 50mm L. I have always wondered if the elements from the still lenses are compatible with the K35 elements? Nick
