Yo nignogs, I bought a canon T50 with a couple of FD lenses for the whopping price of $40 AUD. All things considered it looks pretty decent, but two things:
1) The viewfinder is smeary as fuck, even after an inital clean of the mirror.
2) The lenses have some haze or dotty marks on some internal elements.
I've never stripped a camera or lens before but am generally pretty decent with fixing mechanical shit (ty carbied yamaha you cunt of a thing).
I don't really give a damn if I fuck something up because I don't intend on really using any of it, but it would nice to adapt the 50mm to my DSLR if it comes out nice.
How complicated and likey of a process is it to disassemble and clean? The bigger lens is a zoom which intimidates me more but I'm less concerned about that and might just fuck it off on eBay for $20. Looking up a guide as we speak.
