Conversion of Canon 0.95 to M Mount

[CooperS]

Hi All,

Would appreciate if anyone can inform me where to change the Canon 0.95 TV lens to M mount.

Thanks!

you can send it to DAG in the USA.

I hear that will take 4 months.

Conversions currently can be done overseas only if I'm not wrong, there is no one locally who does it.

Alternatively you can try

Personally my copy was done by another US technician, although he had passed away just a few months ago.

I would recommend DAG though.

According to some post on the HKLFC forum, DAG is not taking anymore order for conversion of the Canon 50/0.95. Apparently he has at least 9 or 10 of them to do and waiting time can be a lot more than 4 months, Some people waited over a year to get their lens back...

Hey, congrats on the monster lens

I sent mine to camera care and you can view my pictures in his gallery. I paid more to CLA the entire lens and focus is adjusted till spot on. And my beautiful lens is now in the hands of our Chairman Dan :sticktong

DAG may not do TV lens conversion.

If I'm not wrong, you can get the guy from japan exposures to send it in right? He does charge a fee though, not too sure about the price

I saw that one a few days ago. Insane price, might as well buy a noctilux for that kind of money...

Saw THIS on eBay. What do you think?

BTW, anyone deal with this seller before? Any good? (I think he is from HK.)

I had 4 conversions done, and just go with DAG or Ken Ruth. MS Optical is also OK, but remember to ask them to add the 6-bit coding. (Be very careful..... overseas detective had to almost intervene and other headaches which I can tell you was part of the experience).
