Spot on, works like a charm! Been doing it for years, never had an issue with sticking threads of a filter.

Thank you for your feedback

Just a sharpen pencil. You need to carefully drive a lead through the thread from start to finish on filters and lenses. After that you have to lightly wipe every thread.

To eliminate problems with unscrewing filters from a lense is to fill boththreads, on a filter and lens with graphite( from a soft pensile). I use this method for many- many years. Try it yourself.

CPL for Ultra wide lens

Try the Fotodiox.com. they have a whole new system designed specificly for connecting filters to wide- angles. Even I haven't try this one yet but I already bought several different products from them including adapters from film lenses to DSLR, Cokin system filters, etc...

Hi.
Thank for sharing and advises.
What do you think about Minolta MD Rokkor 28mm F2.8( NON-AF) for use with same bellows.

Now I'm going to use an old Minolta Rokkinor lens: MD 1.2/50mm, non-AF with an diagram ring, cause non of my Sonys or AF Minoltas don't havingthe ring
First impression : using bellows in my set is very hard to compare to regular DSLR assembly. Please share your experience

Many, many thanks to everybody how responded to my short but unexpected question. Your accurate tips helped me to understand how things work together and what to do.
Thank you
So far: to disconnect any Sony -brand lens from this type of bellows we need to slide the chrome button out of the lens toward bellows body and turn lens counterclockwise

You are right, that is the only moving part, a screw. There was no springs below. I do not know if the screw should be tighten or free. It is possible to "move" a lens in the way simmilar to yours description, but nothing more...

I'm not really sure I understand the situation but that small knurled knob looks much like the set screw on my Pentax bellows. Try unscrewing it, all the way out if necessary, then see if the lens comes free.

Thank you. Interesting idea. I'll try it as soon as receive a respond from that company
