Quick fix earlier of one of my recent favourite cameras, a couple of weeks ago it slipped off my shoulder whilst I was taking a picture with another camera, it only fell about a foot onto concrete but it is a deceivingly heavy camera for a compact M43 so the damage was worse than first noticed, the first 2 pics are of the busted one, it still works fine as I've posted pics taken with it after this happened.

So bought another busted one to fix this busted one just a different broke, it was a relatively easy fix with just 6 screws to remove, apart from having to reshape the corner to fit properly, if not for this it would have only taken 10 mins or so.

Sun 24-40/3.5 was fixed and put back together, had a bit of trouble as I said earlier as there's no detailed repair documention for it anywhere but I got there in the end, so threw the Olympus YS Mount back on it and a couple of quick snapshots in Macro on the Olympus E-420.

[It's still not 100% as a light baffle fell off inside, [The ring in the picture] and needs fixing back on but it's usuable as is]

The diagram is from another similar lens by a different maker but uses the same rear lens layout so was lucky finding it by chance to put the rear glass back in place after cleaning.

Both the Zoom ring and the Focus ring change focus slightly so needs a proper run in daylight and not torch light.

When I put the baffle back in I'll do some more pics as I was in a rush to put it back together.

One more saved.
