Hi David: I have some notes on the Clarus, which include disassembly of the lens... if you're feeling lucky, this might help you get to the problem. Chances are that it's old grease hardened in the focusing threads, and once you get access to it you can soften it with cigarette lighter fluid or Xylene, and then disassemble, clean and relubricate it. Email me at rick_oleson@yahoo.com if you'd like a copy of the notes.

Hi. I just bought a Clarus with a Wollensak Velostigmat 2 inch f2.8 lens. It stops down to f22. The lens serial is 536306. The number on the camera body is 11001. It has a latch style closure and no lugs. The shutter works (although I can't tell how well), and the iris smoothly adjusts from f2.8 to f22. The problem is that the focusing ring is frozen. Any suggestions on how to get it unfrozen? Thanks.
