rajmohan. Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 <p>Does anyone have a recommendation for repair people who can service a Zeiss Sonnar 85mm f2 (for Contax rangefinder) in the US?<br>It's dirty and has some fungus, and I'd like to have it worked on by someone who is known for their good quality (and fairly priced) work on Zeiss Contax RF lenses.<br>Thank you in advance for your help,<br />Raj</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg M Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 <p>I would contact people who will work on Contax cameras and see if they handle the lenses or can recommend someone, such as Mark Hansen..<br> <br /> <a href="http://www.zeissikonrolleirepair.com/index.html">http://www.zeissikonrolleirepair.com/index.html</a></p> <p> </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_foreman1 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Although lenses are not all alike, a competent repairrman should be able to "a/disasemble the lens. Cleaning is usually possible, bit fungus often etches the glass and though it is possible to remove;, it may leave traces!! I bought a Jupiter 9 from a youg Russian seller. He prinarly repairs and fixes such lenses to mount on modern digital hardware, He offered me A cheaper price without the adapter when he realized I was using it on a Contax. I suspect he can certainly do the job.... but he'as in Ruissia?!?! Let me know if interested! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajmohan. Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 <p>Greg and Chuck - thank you for your suggestions. I might contact Mark Hansen first, and if he is unable to help me, I might look toward your chap, Chuck (for the moment, it might be easier to try for someone stateside).<br> Thanks again!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
