Rehousing Vintage Lenses – The journey to cine lens masterpieces with G.L Optics – Epic Episode #19

Описание: This episode it is all about rehousing – we are taking you along on the journey to “rehouse” our Canon FD Dreamset. We are going to take the mystery out of that process and give you super valuable tips and tricks, about judging , treating, cleaning, and working with vintage lenses.

We flew to China to show you – step by step – what happens in a rehousing process… and there is so much to learn here. We are going to give you a crash course in evaluating vintage lenses, and follow the rehousing process itself. We show you the disassembly, cleaning, machining, assembly, measuring, marking, engraving, painting and testing of our Canon FD set,
including a brand new super speed focal length.
We also had the chance to compare our FDs with a real K35 set, to do a bit of myth busting.

Get some popcorn, strap in… and lets head out to G.L Optics in China!
