Change index on Angenieux-Zomm 10 x 20.

[Bo Svalin]

I have a Angenieux- Zoom 10 x 20 Bolex H16 RX, sitting on a H16 with turret. Index for aperture, distances and zoom is to the right.

Is it possible (simple do it myself) to turn the objective so the index be upwards.

If I do this, need the objective colimnation to the camerahouse again ?

 

I hope you understand my question, my english is not so good, I am from Sweden.

Your English is pretty good, although I think that'a a 10x12 Angenieux in an RX mount, not a 10x20. I believe that you'll have to have a technician make the adjustment.

Hello,

It looks to me like you may be able to do this fix yourself. Take your lens off of your camera, turn the little brass threaded part on the rear of the lens 45 degrees, it should be just spring loaded, then put the lens back onto your camera and see if it stops in the correct position. Repeat as necessary.
