Hi guys :)

first of all I´d like to introduce myself.
I´m from germany and got kind of addicted to USSR lenses. Theya all perform very well on my Fuji X-T10.
I got into those lenses because I wanted good glass for cheap first, but then I realised theyr artistic character.

My question is the following:

I have some Helios lenses and since yesterday a Zenit FS-12 set with a Tair 3 (idk if S or A or...).
I had to clean a Helios lens and at the Tair to repair the diaphragma. Everything was fine and not problem at all.
The only trouble I had was with the screws. In both cases they´d broke. And I realised the Helios and the Tair used the same screws.

Does someone know which measures those screws have and where to get them?

Heres a pic in which you can see which screws I mean.



Its these screws and also the ones which are more tiny (dont have a picture right now...)

Thank you all in advance

Yes, I agree with contronatura. Other lenses are the best source of screws.
And proper screwdriver is very, very important.

Only source of those screws are other lenses.
Apply oil 15 min before and use properly fitting screwdriver - then they won't break.
