Subject: [Leica] Information on the Summarit, from those who repair or have had one repaired?

Thanks for the advice.

Perhaps some background information, I have personally assembled and
disassembled lenses, including Nikkor 50/1.1, Hasselblad lenses, etc.  

Does the Summarit require optical alignment on reassembly?  That I
cannot do.

Regards,

Vick Ko

Hello Vick:

With the greatest respect, you do not want to clean your Summarit
yourself. 
Disassembly is not the problem, it is reassembly. More important even is

cleaning the glass surfaces. Yes, the lens dates from the era of
potential 
marring of the coating.
