What's it worth? Canon FL 800mm f/8

I'm going to dig around for this. If I could get another 5 degrees of rotation out of my FD 100 Macro, I could get it to focus at infinity, at least with hyperfocal distance taken into account.

It's different for different lenses. You'll want to look around for that specific lens. Of course, if you're not using the lens as it is, go ahead and open it up.

Because this is such a slow lens, it would probably be easiest to use it on a mirrorless camera. And, because it has such a long focal length, it's probably not much use on APS-C. That leaves Sony α7 owners as your target market. I would sit on it for a few more months until there are more such people, and then put it on eBay.

I've seen a video a while back on how to adjust the focus stop on a SIMILAR lens, but it wasn't the same mechanism as I've got. If there is, in fact, a way to adjust the focus stop, I'd definitely try it!
