    Hi Lucas,

    as I see you're UK based - Bristol? - could you possibly say which grease you used (the heaviest one??) and where you found a UK supplier.

    much appreciated,

    You can buy the 80mm front ring separately, just google "Cine Ring"

    Reviving an old thread as I don't want to create a new one. Which NYE grease did you guys end up using?

    For just the de-click he charges about $70. I had an entire set done and was very pleased by the experience. I had some very nice Nikkors that I didn't want to chance messing up with my own DIY, so I shipped them off.

    Same question here. Love to do it, but unsure of which grease to use.
