do not believe it, the "cutting threads" are only for the inside threads of the lens just as a drill and tap are only for the outside threads. As opposed to a die, this has no outside threads that cut.

I am impressed by its strength and power! Don't take any chances. First, I was drawn to the jig's design, then I discovered how heavy it was. There is no doubt that I am a powerful You do not want to break your lens glass if you use it diligently. There was an obvious problem with my 72mm UV filter glass, which had fallen out of its enclosure, leaving the glass free on top of the Taking off the thin filter frame was impossible because it was so thin. When I tried to remove the glass, I broke it and twisted it to remove it, creating damage and not being able to remove it. The fact that I stopped trying means I left my original lens glass exposed and at risk for damage. Instead, I prefer to use filters to protect all of my good lenses. In later life, I found this tool when I was investigating lens disassembly repair for old vintage lenses and decided to give it a shot. Wow! I was amazed that the filter frame could be unscrewed with the tool and retain its original shape. It took me less than ten minutes to complete.
Observe the scratches on the tool that are caused by the roughed up edges of the damaged filter frame when reviewing the images.
I am so happy! I'm wearing a big smile and am wearing a beautiful vintage lens with its filter ring repaired by this Neewer filter ring repair vise thanks to a 2 cm long rippled dent (I guess asphalt pavement was involved) in the ring. In summary, I watched a YouTube tutorial, cut a cardboard protection circle to protect the front element (in retrospect, I'm not so sure that was necessary, and it usually got in my way) and probably spent no more than ten minutes on the project. Here it is! If you are interested, s, for those who are I'm going to look for more wounded lovelies to heal! I am happy with the tool itself, as it is really nice. A stealthy black finish on nicely fabricated steel. No complaints with the quality of the service. It appears there are other items available for sale that look almost identical, but I do not have any firsthand knowledge of The Neewer vise I acquired hasn't let me down. Their products have been excellent in the past, so I chose their version of this vise. I got it to work! The way lenses are built now is totally different from what it used to be. Bringing one back to life and helping it to find a new home is a great feeling.
The recommended course of action is not For dented or out-of-round instruments, this tool will do the trick A round thread mount is used for lens filters. All these threads all have a 0 thread pitch as the standard. In the tool's range, this tool can handle 75mm (for sizes within its capabilities). Although it is equipped with 1 jaw, the tool does not have 2 jaws. I would suggest 0mm pitch instead of A 75mm lens. Due to this, the jaws were not aligned properly with the threads being repaired, and the lenses were in fact further damaged. Moreover, my unit arrived with loose parts from poor assembly due to poor quality parts. There were loose setscrews fixing guide rod ends into the nut plate on both sides of the slide, and the guide rods were not completely screwed into the fixed jaw. It appears that the assembler put red thread locking compound on anyway, atop the screws (rather than within the threads). Assemblage and quality assurance appear to be lacking, but the parts appear to be of good quality. If they could adjust the thread pitch of the jaws (a trivial adjustment with a machine tool) and spend a little more time on assembly, it could be an excellent product. As it is, it will damage your lens even more and will be even harder to fix. It is not something I would recommend.
8L lens that came with the Canon 5D Mark IV fell on the ground when I dropped it When I gave it to someone at an airport, I left my 70mm lens on it and it dented. It was difficult to put on and take off the ND filter, and when it did go on it got stuck and I had to work hard to remove it. I was able to solve my problems with this tool! It was simple enough to follow a YouTube video of someone else fixing their lens and voila! I can now put ND filters on the lens without any issues, and the lens works great again. You can only imagine how much Canon would have had to charge to fix that!.
There are YouTube tutorials you can watch if you can't find instructions with this product. My only request would be to see maybe some pre-shows before the game starts The tool needs to be protected from the glass until it is used. Other than that, I was able to fix the threads on a Canon 70D An aperture of f2 is required for the 200mm lens. I am very happy with this 8 lens kit!.
This tool is easily used. Line up the threads, expand the vise, loosen the vise, rotate along the threads to find tension points, expand the vise again, and repeat until your filter threads are in place! The vise is very simple to use, and all my lenses have a small rubber seal where the teeth sit, so I didn't bother with serving the glass protected by a plastic hood. It is fixed for my Canon L series 24-70 mm I will be 70 & amp I will be 72 This is my 70th birthday.
There were four lenses that had damaged filter threads. Sadly, it had been bent inwards and outwards It was a good purchase & I would recommend it I am able to use filters now without any problems. You should cover your lenses if you don't want to get eye infection Organize your time by doing little things at a time Keep the threads in mind.
Working as described, this tool works as expected. In my case, I used it to fix a 24-inch monitor It had an old Canon 70mm lens with a ding in the My old filter did not work with this tool, so I had to break it off. I could not get any filters on before using the tool. A little elbow grease is required here, and I suggest you use gaff tape on the front element so as not to scratch it. It is apparent in the photos that the threads are jacked up, but that was a sacrifice I was willing to make in order to once again use filters.
