Fujinon MK to RED DSMC - Assembly Guide

Overview

When doing the mount swap you will need a clean environment and a stable flat surface.

All the parts and tools you will need are provided in the conversion kit.

Its important to take your time when doing this conversion to minimalise any risk of damaging the lens

Even when going slowly the process is fairly quick to carry out & should take approximately 15 minutes to do.

You can keep the mount in the packaging at this stage to protect the anodised rear of the mount from marks.

Place the Fujinon MK lens with the front of the lens (with the lens cap on) facing your work surface.

You can then use one hand to support the lens and the other to remove the screws.

The tolerances are very tight, so it has to be aligned perfectly perpendicular for the mount to fit.

Make sure that the optic tension shim sits correctly inside the DSMC > Fujinon MK Mount.

Fit the white optic tension shim onto the rear of the lenses macro adjustment ring
Fit the DSMC > Fujinon MK Mount onto the lens

Apply a small amount of pressure onto the mount, so that it seats with the lens correctly.
