Hello everyone. I recently acquired a beautiful 85mm f2 Jupiter 9 that someone disassembled to modify the mount for dslr/mirrorless use. The mount is Contax/Kiev. I have all of the missing pieces but haven’t been able reconstruct how it comes together. Is there a diagram out there on the web or does someone on the forum have experience with this mount? The large washer,brass rangefinder coupling as well as the retaining spring is in hand and appear undamaged. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.Thanks
Late to this one!
The Kiev Survival Site is on the Wayback Machine, complete with pictures.
I would do a "Save as" complete webpage for future reference!
I followed the instructions for a couple of J-9's, came out great. One of them- now on a Contax to Leica adapter.
