- There was actually a lot of sticky Oil on the aperture blades and in the aperture assembly in my old Konica Hexanon AR 50mm F1.7. But with the right tools and some patience, it's actually possible to cleaning the aperture blades and the assembly in an "easy" way.
Remember: there must not be any oil left in the aperture system, it has to "run dry".

Thank you for this video! I managed to follow it and have restored a copy with very oily blades to working order. Your meticulous tutorial is very much appreciated!
I just bought this lens and I'll do some cleaning on it tomorrow. Your video was just what I needed. Thanks a lot and greetings from Italy.
Thanks, your video really helped me to repair and bring back to life this lens from a friend of mine. Is amazing this kind of content and also was a huge inspiration for trying to do this kind of content in my language, because I know sometimes the language barrier stopped a lot of people. Thanks, keep with this amazing content
I can see your point, and I don't know what to do about it, I have only 2 language. Danish is my native language, and then English.
I have no idea if it's possible to do some translation to another language with subtitles or so.
@@mikeno62 I will try to do the subtitles in some spare time, so more people can use your amazing tutorial. If I can’t then I will try to do something in Spanish with credits to your content. Then again thanks for your content, it’s amazing. Cheers from Mexico!
And i am back here again for another detailed deconstruct.
Muchas gracias por tu tiempo! Seguí paso a paso tus instrucciones y mi lente quedó como nuevo! Ahora sí a divertirse, muchas gracias.

Just amazing! What a patient:) I am big fan of konica lenses and waiting for your konica hexanon 40mm 1.8 AR disassemble video. Thanks for all these great videos!
Thanks Kaan, I don't have the Hexanon 40mm, but I have the 100mm 1:2.8 with A LOT of Fungus, and I will sooner make a few videos about that lens and also cleaning the lens elements, I hopefully think it will be good :-)
@@mikeno62 I am looking forward :)
What a fantastic tear-down and rebuild. Thank you very much for detailing this! Cheers, Dave.
Another great job! My son (also called Kenneth) has this lens on the Konica SLR that I gave him. I've sent him the link.
Thanks for another fascinating video. I'd love to see you do the helicoids on this one: I have the 50mm 1.8, and when you were spinning the focus ring here, I saw that yours turns much easier than mine.
I always enjoy your videos.

Thanks Joe, I only have the 50mm 1:1.7 that I can make a video about, how to re-grease the helicoids.
@@mikeno62 Right. That's what I meant.
Probably a language thing. Sorry.
..Joe
Thank you for your guide, it helped to revive another old lens.
Great tutorial! This will come in handy once my Hexanon arrives! Thanks for sharing!
Que se necesita estudiar para aprender eso? Es sumamente interesante, estoy fascinado. He reparado un par de lentes viendo tus tutoriales, muchas gracias 🙌 saludos desde Orizaba, Veracruz México.
thanks a lot
Great lens! I have one of this and I am giving it some maintenance on this weekend. Thanks and greetings from Brazil!
Thanks, this video helped me to figure out how to clean out some sticky oil in the aperture mechanism! Now it moves really snappy!
thank you, as the video played i managed to get all the glass ,remove the dust and get it all back together, iv got the older shape , removing rhe center part of the mount made taking back plate of less forcefull. theres a tab on the aperture ring that gets in the way.removing the center gives more manoeuvrability.
thank you for this video. it helped me fix and declick a lens I got from a friend
thanks dude!!!! amazing tutorial for clean konika 50mm!!! Grettings from Argentina.
I was trying to apply your disassembly method for the Hexanon 50 1.4, but it seems to be different. I removed the rear part to get to the aperture ring, but I can’t remove the aperture ring for some reason. Any hints? Many thanks
Excellent!
Jesus Christ! I'd rather perform an open heart surgery. Fantastic tutorial, thank you very much for your time!
I tried an ultrasonic cleaner. Works great, but ALL of the paint on the number markings are gone :')
Can i use this video as a manual for my Konica hexanon ar 57 mm 1.4?
Thank you for your videos and your gentle way of explaining - just nice to listen to you!
Fantastic video! I'm wondering if instead of completely disassembling the aperture system, could I not just submerge/pour isopropyl alcohol onto the oily bits once the elements were removed? Or are there important parts that need to stay lubricated/greased?
Great video! With this lens, does the front lens group fully disassemble for cleaning?
I have Konica 50mm 1.7 which i accidentally opened the lens, can you please help to put it back together? thanks.
В этом случае, нужно промывать весь объектив, а не упражняться отдельно с диафрагмой
This looks like a lost art. Definitely beyond my potential.
Thank you!
I have a Konica AR Hexanon 85mm with fungus. Any tips on disassembling that?
I don't have the 85mm, but I have the 100mm 1:2.8 with A LOT of Fungus, and I will sooner make a few videos about that lens and also cleaning the lens elements, I hopefully think it will be good :-)
@@mikeno62 That would be great. Thank you!
Kan jeg sende kamera til dig for at få dem fikset?
Sorry, I do not have repair service.
