  4. Remove the 3 Board Cushions
  5. These can get lost easily and is why we remove these first. Place these in a small plastic bag or in a safe secure location. Be careful with ESD. Static Discharge can short your board.

  7. Notice positioning
  8. Use spudger or other method to release ziff clamp and remove flex cable.

  14. Remove 4 - 4mm screws. Once removed the barrel will release and extend.
  15. Make a marking (i used white) to align with the White marking on the Focus ring to make re-assembly easier
  16. Notice the 3 Grooves. These are the slide grooves where the barrel moves up and down. You will need to release the pins from the grooves at each point - one by one by using pressure.

  18. Apply pressure out the outter tip near pin pushing in slightly and gently release the pin from the barrel. Do this on all three locations where the pins are located.
  19. I have seen people push the focus ring outward to release the pins... which works but you need to be careful because the focus ring is fragile and it can bend easy. If you bend the focus ring then you will have a lens that jams.

  21. Remove 2 screws 2 x 4mm (black screws with a tight thread)
  22. Remove 1 screw 1 x 3mm
  23. Remove metal plate (see arrow)... review orientation before removing.

  25. Next to your previous mark make a mark on the outer barrel to help with re-assembly.. That mark will line up with 0.25m lettering on the front barrel

  27. Ok so here is how to remove the inner barrel. Twist the gear teeth in the direction of the arrow as far as it will go until you get a gap similar to picture #2
  28. Shows already in twisted position. Now just pull up on the middle barrel (glass housing) until the lens mechanism starts to twist.
  29. Step image Step image
  30. Pull up on inner part (glass housing). The barrel will begin to twist. Notice Extended notch. Twist until the Notch descends. Stop when notch descends.
  31. Picture shows notch has descended. Now you can twist rear part until it releases and remove it. Be careful in removing. Make sure it removes freely. There are tabs that can break off if forced.
  32. Twist until inner barrel releases and drops from groove. Mark the point where barrel releases and remove groove tube.
