Hi guys! I recently had an issue with my 35 Ultron, where it developed a loose barrel from the front of the lens to right before the focusing ring.

Couldn't find anything here, so i thought I'd share my documentation on the fix.

Hope this helps someone out there. Images have been posted further down this thread.

Thank you. I hope I don't need the information but I do have a 35mm Ultron.

Thanks!

I have this problem and also the focus ring is kind of loose in mine, moving front and bakwards. Hope to find a fix for that too.

This has been reported before, with a fix as well. Something to do with set screws.

Thanks for the heads up. Did a search but it didn't come up for some reason. In any case, I think the pictures will help a little more.

The screws on my Ultron are tight as hell!! I´m completely unable to do this since I started to wear out the screw heads...

Moreover the focus ring moves front and backwards like 2mm. Even my fsu lenses are more solid. A killer performer anyway.

Focus ring moves! Ok...that's a new one man. One day when i do encounter that, I may just update my information.

My apologies guys. I took my website down some time back, and totally forgot about this link. The images are now hosted in a more permanent place, and I hope this helps those who are currently looking for the fix.

I could access the last part directly from the picture no 1. No need for removing the aperture ring.
