Remove The Front Lens On An Element Pentax 6x7 90mm 2 8 Lens

Trade out the lens on your Pentax camera.


The Pentax 6X7 is a film based camera that comes with a standard 90mm 2.8 lens. This lens gives you the same focal point as the human eye. However, while using the Pentax 6X7 camera it is often necessary to change out the lens to either increase the zoom, switch the focal point or capture a wider viewing area. Thankfully the Pentax 6X7 lens is removable so you shouldn't have a problem switching in a new lens.


Instructions


1. Press down on the lens release button located next to the camera lens. This unlocks the camera lens from the camera itself. Make sure you have a hand on both lens and camera to prevent it from falling to the ground.


2. Twist the lens to the left slowly. Eventually the lens unscrews right off of the Pentax 6X7. Place the lens in a safe location to prevent any dirt from collecting on the lens glass.


3. Attach the new, replacement lens onto the camera and turn it to the right. Eventually the lens locks into place. You hear a slight click when this occurs.


4. Repeat this process every time you need to change out a lens on the Pentax 6X7 camera.
