Notes
The EZ lenses are notoriously hard to get/keep optically clean due to the several follower channels (ie, contamination entry points). It's highly recommended, when re-assembling, to use the according tap (M1.7 for follower screws) to clean out the dry and flaky white glue that Angénieux uses.
