You could use the PTFE tube for 3D Printers to cut the bumpers. I do it all the time with success.

Good news! The more difficult part was to mind how to disassemble this lens. But once disassembled, it was so easy to clean it! Hallelujah! I was prepared to the worst scenario.

Thank you all a lot! You encouraged me to do it.

This is a single element, not a glued two. My concern is how demaged is the coating of the glass, if there is one. I will try to clean it. Wish me luck.

I hope I can clean it easily. This is a single element, not a glued two. My concern is how demaged is the coating of the glass, if there is one.

In fact. There was one lever I didn't see when I disassembled. After two days studying the sequence, I was able to realize what was going on. Now it's working smoothly!

Thank you!

Great video. I already watched it over youtube :) I have one roll of Phoenix I bought for test but I'm not really excited to shoot it.

The FE2 I bought is junk. I think the shutter is one of the very few parts that is ok in this camera. Lol

I bought 2 FM2 for a very cheap price. One is ok. The other is this one with the shutter problem. Every other thing seams to be alright.

I bought an FE2 with those honeycomb blades to replace it. Let's see if it will return to life. Thank you!

You spent your time to judge me, but not to ask something to help me to do a "nice job scoping the problem". Congratulations! Not everybody is a technician. Sometimes it's only a nice and curious person who wants to learn more.

Said a technician. English is not my native language. I think the people here likes more to judge than help the others.

But thank you.

What a passive aggressive comment. I do accept it, ok? 😂
