au8ust Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I've just received my second Iscorama Cinegon. The first Cinegon I have I noticed when I rotate the focus ring below 2m it will just fall apart. This doesn't happen to the original Iscorama I have. I thought it was the fault of my Cinegon at the time since its condition was so bad. When I got another Cinegon it's just exactly the same as the first one. It's like you're screwing the front glass out. So, is it normal for the Cinegon version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liszon Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 According to wikipedia, the Cinegon is basically the same lens as the Isco 36 therefore they should behave the same way. I hope someone can clear this up. I haven't heard about this issue yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ch_d Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 maybe you got one with the "close focus mod" ...? '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> the inner stopper for close focus got shaved off and no new close focus stopper was attached Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
au8ust Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 I was thinking about that too. However, it's not likely for my case. I asked the person I bought the lens from, he told me it was just like that when he originally bought it. Maybe other Cinegon owners could confirm this.

au8ust Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 Okay, found a solution. So I just let it unscrewed and then screwed it back with a different position. Didn't work for the first few attempts but worked finally on the 4th attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim McC Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I've never had this happen to my Cinegon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
